    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    The third edition of this highly regarded text provides a rigorous, yet entertaining, introduction to probability theory and the analytic ideas and tools on which the modern theory relies. The main changes are the inclusion of the Gaussian isoperimetric inequality plus many improvements and clarifications throughout the text. With more than 750 exercises, it is ideal for first-year graduate students with a good grasp of undergraduate probability theory and analysis. Starting with results about independent random variables, the author introduces weak convergence of measures and its application to the central limit theorem, and infinitely divisible laws and their associated stochastic processes. Conditional expectation and martingales follow before the context shifts to infinite dimensions, where Gaussian measures and weak convergence of measures are studied. The remainder is devoted to the mutually beneficial connection between probability theory and partial differential equations, culminating in an explanation of the relationship of Brownian motion to classical potential theory.
