[Briefing]
Probability and statistics are as much about intuition and problem solving, as
they are about theorem proving. Because of this, students can find it very
difficult to make a successful transition from lectures to examinations to practice,
since the problems involved can vary so much in nature. Since the subject is
critical in many modern applications such as mathematical finance, quantitative
management, telecommunications, signal processing, bioinformatics, as well as
traditional ones such as insurance, social science and engineering, the authors
have rectified deficiencies in traditional lecture-based methods by collecting
together a wealth of exercises for which they’ve supplied complete solutions.
These solutions are adapted to the needs and skills of students. To make it of
broad value, the authors supply basic mathematical facts as and when they are
needed, and have sprinkled some historical information throughout the text.
