Reviews

From the reviews: This book ! provides the systematic and exhaustive account of mathematical foundations of stochastic geometry with particular emphasis on tools from convex geometry. ! The thorough and up-to-date presentation in this text makes it an invaluable source for researchers pursuing studies not only in stochastic geometry, but also in convex geometry and various applications ! . an absolutely indispensable part of all mathematical libraries. ! also beneficial for personal collections of all mathematicians who ever deal with probability measures on spaces of geometric objects. (Ilya S. Molchanov, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1175, 2010) The book presents a number of results that are otherwise scattered among an immense number of research papers and mostly provides full proofs for them. ! The most remarkable aspect of the book is the reader-friendly structure and the style in which it has been written. The book is also worth owning not only for those working in stochastic geometry and immediately related fields of theoretical and applied probability and spatial statistics. ! This book ! will be an essential part of every mathematical library. (V. K. Oganyan, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2010 g)

Aus den Rezensionen: Dieses Buch ist eine konzentrierte und trotzdem gut lesbare Beschreibung des State-of-the-Art in der Stochastischen Geometrie. ... Das Buch ... enthalt eine systematische und ausfuhrliche Darstellung zunachst der Grundlagen und dann der wichtigsten Resultate und Anwendungen der stochastischen Geometrie. ... Es ist ... als solide Grundlage fur jene geeignet, die sich in die Stochastische Geometrie einarbeiten wollen ... Aufgrund der zahlreichen interessanten Bemerkungen zum Stand der aktuellen Forschung am Ende jedes Kapitels ist es ... fur Spezialisten eine ergiebige Quelle. ... ein unverzichtbares Werkzeug und Nachschlagewerk. (M. Reitzner, in: IMN Internationale Mathematische Nachrichten, April/2010, Issue 213, S. 53 f.)
