Reviews

This book is an excellent starting point for those new to the area, and a useful reference for more experienced researchers. It brings together a wide range of techniques for probabilistic approximations in a way which is accessible to a reader with a modest background in probability. The presentation is user-friendly, giving the reader all that is needed to select and apply appropriate methods for a range of approximation problems. (Fraser Daly, zbMATH 1345.60005, 2016)
