>without specifying its pdf or how you could derive the pdf
Would you or anyone happen to know of a good book that discusses the derivation of various advanced probability distributions? It is quite frustrating that every ML or stats book I come across run through various distributions without giving the reader any sort of motivation or intuition behind them. Without that intuition how am I supposed to have any idea when to apply one vs another?
