Abstract
(1) PROF. FRECHET'S "Généralités" represents the first volume only of a treatise which, as a whole, is to form part of the very important "Traité du calcul des probabilités"edited by Prof. Borel. The present volume is chiefly dedicated to an examination of the theory of random variables which has both simplified and re-modelled the classical theory of probability.
