> The primer jumps to the definition of probability space and measure in the first few paragraphs But in a very clear and straightforward way. I think you are laughting at it a bit because you know what (and how big) a measure theory is so you are automatically 'importing' all that knowledge and you think the author did too. But all is required from the reader is literally what a finite set and a fuction are. Students are very often scared of 'big words' because it seem like it should be hard even if a simple definition of that word has just been given, which is a bit weird and I'm not sure where it's comming from I like this approach a lot, it makes it easier learning harder and harder concepts later when you start this way because you are introduced to correct terminology early instead of analogies and hand-waving. Later material is harder to learn so analogies no longer work and it often feels like 'ok, this is too hard now' or like you are starting over
