Book Description
This book presents similarity between Gaussian and non-Gaussian stable multivariate distributions and introduces the one-dimensional stable random variables. It discusses the most basic sample path properties of stable processes, namely sample boundedness and continuity.

Reviews
"There has been a pressing need for a book on this subject...The authors have succeeded in filling the gap...I am very glad a standard reference about stable processes now exists."
