This textbook provides an elementary introduction to the theory of probability which will be suitable for undergraduates.

The first chapter covers the basic definitions of outcomes, discrete distributions, and the laws of additive and multiplicative probabilities. Chapters 2 and 3 cover further material on discrete distributions, countable additivity, random variables, and introduces the binomial and other basic discrete distributions. Chapters 4 and 5 introduce continuous distributions whilst the text concludes with discussion of conditional probabilities and expectations.
