内容简介
· This is an update Text book for beginning graduate students in Mathematics, Probability and Statistics, Engineering, Computer Sciences, Mathematical Economics
· It distinguishes from all existing texts on the subject from its pedagogical spirit, namely, motivations before mathematics; mathematics tools are only introduced when needed and motivated
· All theoretical results are proved in a friendly fashion
· Teaching the students, not only the concepts and possible applications, but also guiding the students with proof techniques
· This series will help students to learn with full understanding and appreciation of the subject
· It will provide interested students with solid background for research
