Mathematics with Boris Trushin. Probability Theory: From Scratch to Understanding

Boris Trushin's new book helps to understand the basics of probability theory from scratch. It is aimed at a wide range of readers — from sixth graders to those who graduated from school long ago, and it does not require any prior knowledge.

You will start with an intuitive understanding of probability, learn to accurately set up probabilistic models, analyze classical formulas, and gradually reach Bayes' theorem, Bernoulli trials, mathematical expectation, variance, and the law of large numbers.

As in other books in the series, there are many detailed explanations, worked examples, and problems that show that probability theory — is not a set of tricks, but a rigorous and very beautiful way to reason about randomness.
