The narrative is clear, careful and detailed but, at the same time, designed to draw (not to bore) the reader in. The main strengths, in my opinion, are the wealth of convincing applications, which are discussed at some, but not too much length after each bit of theoretical development, and the large number of exercises given at the ends of sections, not just at the ends of chapters.\" --\u003cb\u003eMartin Crowder, University of Surrey, Guildford, in THE STATISTICIAN\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eServing as the foundation for a one-semester course in stochastic processes for students familiar with elementary probability theory and calculus, \u003ci\u003eIntroduction to Stochastic Modeling, Fourth Edition,\u003c\/i\u003e bridges the gap between basic probability and an intermediate level course in stochastic processes.
