Written by one of the worlds leading probabilists, this book presents recent results previously available only in specialized monographs. It features the introduction and use of martingales, which allow readers to do much more with Brownian motion, e.g., applications to option pricing, and integrates queueing theory into the presentation of continuous time Markov chains and renewal theory.
