Report

"This is a very well written textbook devoted to applications of Markov processes in physics. It combines a concise and mathematically rigorous exposition of the main notions of stochastic calculus with a more classical approach based on the solution of a Fokker-Planck or master equation." ( Zentralblatt MATH , 1 December 2012)
