<Charles M. Grinstead> coauthored <Introduction to Probability by Charles M. Grinstead and J. Laurie Snell> with <J. Laurie Snell>. The institutional publication record identifies the1997 second revised edition and its authors.https://works.swarthmore.edu/fac-math-stat/153/[Swarthmore institutional book record]{ref} The text develops <probability> from concrete models through tools such as <conditional probability>, <expectation> and <Markov chains>. For example, counting length-$n$ sequences of independent fair coin tosses gives probability$2^{-n}\binom nk$ for exactly$k$ heads, connecting discrete counting with a probability model rather than treating either in isolation.
