I already know Analysis.
This books seems concise and rigorous.
Billingsley is too big it would take me months to finish it.
Other gems which I might have missed?

I would also like a book recommendation but the rigour should be an add-on, like Spivak's calculus for probability.

Why are you learning probability for industry or you want to do graduate work in it?

I'm doing it for better job prospects.
But I'm also autistic so I want the statement followed by the proof kind of book.

A First Course in Probability by Ross is the text I used in Probability 1, the pdf of the 7th edition is free online.

The book I liked the most though was Probability and Statistics with Applications, a Problem Solving Text by Asimow and Maxwell, it's honestly one of the best math texts I have read in my life. It's more oriented towards actuarial students, but you learn the same information that you would learn in any other non-babby tier probability and stats course.
