Reviews

From the reviews of the fourth edition: This is the fourth edition of a textbook intended for everyone interested in practising stochastic processes. ... this fourth one is `thoroughly revised and augmented, and has been completely reset. ... this new edition is designed to cater better for the wider readership as well as to those [he] originally had in mind'. ... The bibliography is well presented, with a list of the references cited in each chapter, a commented global bibliography and an author index. (Yves Elskens, Belgian Physical Society Magazine, Issue 2, 2012)
