A book for probability
Hello,
I recommend you a book on probability: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~chance/teaching_aids/books_articles/probability_book/book.html
It has a nice practical approach.

Re: A book for probability
Hi gAr;
That is a good book.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
