This second edition of a classic work has been considerably expanded and revised, now with complete proofs of all results, including several new theorems not included in the first edition, such as Talagrand's generic chaining approach to boundedness of Gaussian processes and Gine and Zinn's characterization of uniform Donsker classes.

This classic graduate textbook offers a clear exposition of modern probability theory and of the interplay between the properties of metric spaces and probability measures. The comprehensive historical notes have been further amplified for this edition, and a number of new exercises have been added, together with hints for solution.
