Ross's classic bestseller, INTRODUCTION TO PROBABILITY MODELS, has
been used extensively by professionals and as the primary text for a
first undergraduate course in applied probability. It provides an
introduction to elementary probability theory and stochastic
processes, and shows how probability theory can be applied to the
study of phenomena in fields such as engineering, computer science,
management science, the physical and social sciences, and operations
research. With the addition of several new sections relating to
actuaries, this text is highly recommended by the Society of
Actuaries.
