A classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say – Italo Calvino. These words definitely apply to Feller’s books. Both the volumes by Feller on probability can be considered as classics. The first book deal with the discrete variables while second is far advanced as it deals with measure theory and continuous variables. Markov processes are one of the main sources for Martingales and I had to go back to Feller to work on Markov Processes and managed to go over the entire book instead of only looking up stuff on Markov Processes.
