The style is compact and clear. The presentation is well complemented by a large number of useful remarks and exercises. Graduate students attending university courses in modern probability theory and its applications can benefit a lot from working with this book. There are good reasons to expect that the book will be met positively by students, university teachers and young researchers. (Jordan M. Stoyanov, zbMATH 1434.60003, 2020)
