Probability and Statistics by Example Volume 1, Basic Probability and Statistics 2005 Cambridge
'In this book, one can find a well-balanced mix of clearly explained theory, several classical and interesting examples which complement and integrate the theory discussed, as well as thought-provoking quotations and humorous sentences which make reading this book very pleasant. …The results presented are always worked out in detail in a style that is never dry but full of hints about the properties and devices used as well as illustrative pictures to stimulate the reader's attention and insight. … The title might lead someone to think that this book is merely an introduction, however it is not only for the beginner.'
