Noise Theory and Application to Physics by Philippe Rfrgier

I had great pleasure in reading Philippe Refregier's book on the theory of noise and its applications in physics. Since noise affects information, the author is naturally led to consider Shannon's information theory, which in turn brings him to the altogether fundamental idea of entropy.

From the reviews:

"Philippe Réfrégier’s book is an introduction to the fundamental principles of randomness that can be encountered in a physicist’s everyday life… Réfrégier’s book is a good textbook for physics graduate students and researchers who want to go a little deeper into probability theory … . I would also recommend it to mathematicians who want to get a different point of view on probability theory. Students will undoubtedly profit from a variety of exercises that come with … solutions." (Achim Klenke, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1092 (18), 2006)

"The book provides a good presentation of the statistical basis for theories of noise in physics. … Noise theory and application to physics provides a precise description of the theoretical background and practical tools for noise and fluctuation analyses. It will thus be of great interest to undergraduate or postgraduate students and researchers in physics and the engineering sciences." (Stefan Adams, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2006 e)
