In the enclosed evaluation sheet was the question Have youever considered writing a textbook? and I suddenly realized that the answer was Yes, and had been for quite some time. For several years I had been teaching acourse on calculus-based probability and statistics mainly for mathematics, science,and engineering students. Other than the basic probabilitytheory, my goal was to in-clude topics from two areas: statistical inference and Stochastic Processes .
