Fifty Challenging Problems in Probability with Solutions  by Frederick Mosteller Remarkable puzzlers, graded in difficulty, illustrate elementary and advanced aspects of probability. These problems were selected for originality, general interest, or because they demonstrate valuable techniques. Also includes detailed solutions.		Problems in Probability Theory, Mathematical Statistics and Theory of Random Functions  by A. A. Sveshnikov Approximately 1,000 problems — with answers and solutions included at the back of the book — illustrate such topics as random events, random variables, limit theorems, Markov processes, and much more.
Probability Theory: A Concise Course  by Y. A. Rozanov This clear exposition begins with basic concepts and moves on to combination of events, dependent events and random variables, Bernoulli trials and the De Moivre-Laplace theorem, and more. Includes 150 problems, many with answers.		Elements of the Theory of Markov Processes and Their Applications  by A. T. Bharucha-Reid Graduate-level text and reference in probability, with numerous scientific applications. Nonmeasure-theoretic introduction to theory of Markov processes and to mathematical models based on the theory. Appendixes. Bibliographies. 1960 edition.
Introduction to Probability Theory with Contemporary Applications  by Lester L. Helms Extensive discussions and clear examples, written in plain language, expose students to the rules and methods of probability. Exercises foster problem-solving skills, and all problems feature step-by-step solutions. 1997 edition.		Good Thinking: The Foundations of Probability and Its Applications  by Irving John Good This in-depth treatment of probability theory by a famous British statistician explores Keynesian principles and surveys such topics as Bayesian rationality, corroboration, hypothesis testing, and mathematical tools for induction and simplicity. 1983 edition.
Foundations of Probability  by Alfred Renyi Taking an innovative approach to both content and methods, this book explores the foundations, basic concepts, and fundamental results of probability theory, plus mathematical notions of experiments and independence. 1970 edition.		Introduction to Probability  by John E. Freund Featured topics include permutations and factorials, probabilities and odds, frequency interpretation, mathematical expectation, decision making, postulates of probability, rule of elimination, much more. Exercises with some solutions. Summary. 1973 edition.

"Can the difficulty of an exam be measured by how many bits of information a student would need to pass it? This may not be so absurd in the encyclopedic subjects but in mathematics it doesn't make any sense since things follow from each other and, in principle, whoever knows the bases knows everything. All of the results of a mathematical theorem are in the axioms of mathematics in embryonic form, aren't they?" — Alfred Rényi
