Probability Course
by Gian-Carlo Rota
Publisher: David Ellerman 1998
Number of pages: 544
Description:
In the year before his premature death in 1999, Gian-Carlo Rota gave his famous course, Probability, at MIT for the last time. The late John N. Guidi (1954-2012) (audio) taped the lectures and took notes which he then wrote up in an almost verbatim manner conveying the substance and some of the atmosphere of the course.

Random Walks and Electric Networks
by Peter G. Doyle, J. Laurie Snell - Dartmouth College
In this work we will look at the interplay of physics and mathematics in terms of an example where the mathematics involved is at the college level. The example is the relation between elementary electric network theory and random walks.
