Summary: A masterpiece... but full of typos
Review: This is volume 1 of a famous masterpiece. It has an ample coverage of a very interesting and useful subject. It is very well organized, and the style is very appealing. The big problem is the incredibly large number of typos! Some are irrelevant, some others are annoying, and the rest are just dangerous, the kind that can make you question your own sanity until you realize there is a mistake. The problem is particularly vexing because it is the second edition, and the authors claim they did not change this volume very much. Then it means that the publishers did not bother to correct the typos from the first edition, a serious case of malpractice. The problem is so huge that I am returning Volume 2. (By the way, the second edition of Shiryaev's classic book on Probability suffers from the same problem, lots and lots of typos.) The editors and publishers could pay more attention to proofreading books of this sort, in which even a small typo can seriously mar the presentation of the argument. Or at least they could provide errata lists on the Web.
