Probability and Statistical Inference, Second Edition by Nitis Mukhopadhyay

This text presents the rigorous theory of probability and statistical inference using worked examples, exercises, figures, tables, and computer simulations to develop and illustrate concepts. Beginning with the basic ideas and techniques of probability theory and progressing to more rigorous topics, the author covers all of the topics typically addressed in a two-semester graduate or upper-level undergraduate course in probability and statistical inference, including hypothesis testing, Bayesian analysis, and sample-size determination. He reinforces important ideas and special techniques with drills and boxed summaries.

Praise for the First Edition
..the book contains unique features throughout. Examples are the moment problem, which is clarified through a nice example, the role of the probability generating functions, and the central limit theorem for the sample variance. Techniques and concepts are typically illustrated through a series of examples. Within a box is routinely summarized what it is that has been accomplished or where to go from that point. At the end of each chapter a long list of exercises is arranged according the sections.
