From the Reviews: To call this work encyclopedic would not give an accurate picture of its content and style. Some parts read like a textbook, but others are more technical and contain relatively new results. ... The exposition is robust and explicit, as one has come to expect of the Russian tradition of mathematical writing. --K.L. Chung, American Scientist, 1977
From the Reviews:
Gihman and Skorohod have done an excellent job of presenting the theory in its present state of rich imperfection.

To call this work encyclopedic would not give an accurate picture of its content and style. Some parts read like a textbook, but others are more technical and contain relatively new results. ... The exposition is robust and explicit, as one has come to expect of the Russian tradition of mathematical writing. The set when completed will be an invaluable source of information and reference in this ever-expanding field
K.L. Chung in American Scientist, 1977
The dominant impression is of the authors' mastery of their material, and of their confident insight into its underlying structure. ...
