Probability is a beautiful mathematical theory in its own right, but it also is a theory that can be very widely applied.
Quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics are vitally informed by it, and its methods of analysis are frequently encountered in just about every field of knowledge or endeavor that uses quantitative methods: economics, business, psychology, sociology, meteorology, biology, chemistry---the list goes on.
Consequently, it is the goal of Undergraduate Probability to enable its readers to see how the mathematical formalisms of probability theory are naturally relevant to various real-world phenomena.
Some of the application topics that are discussed in this text include velocities and pressures in ideal gases, climate data correlations, randomness and consciousness, and of course also a number of elementary random experiments involving coin flips or darts or rolls of a die.
Moreover and more specifically, the great importance of the normal distribution and the Central Limit Theorem is consistently emphasized and thoroughly explored.
About the Author: Frank Blume is a professor of mathematics at John Brown University who has been teaching undergraduate mathematics courses to students in science and engineering for the past 25 years.

Platforma de publicare independentă CreateSpace a fost un serviciu de autopublicare pentru autori independenți, cunoscut în primul rând pentru că îi ajută pe autori să publice și să distribuie cărți tipărite la cerere.
CreateSpace și-a schimbat serviciile la Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP).
CreateSpace și KDP fac ambele parte din platformele de autopublicare ale Amazon, iar autorii pot folosi KDP pentru a publica și distribui atât cărți electronice, cât și cărți tipărite.
Prin KDP, autorii își pot crea, publica și distribui cărțile la nivel global, ajungând la cititori prin rețeaua vastă a Amazon.
Dacă sunteți autor sau aspiră să publice o carte, poate doriți să explorați Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) pentru nevoile dvs.
de autopublicare.
