An introduction to measure-theoretic probability /
"In this introductory chapter, the concepts of a field and of a [sigma]-field are introduced, they are illustrated bymeans of examples, and some relevant basic results are derived. Also, the concept of a monotone class is defined and its relationship to certain fields and [sigma]-fields is inve...
