review text: This is a continuation of an earlier paper by the author [ibid. 24, 1049-1103 (1996; Zbl 0867.60017)] on majorizing measures. Interestingly, the measures are dropped from the theory, and are replaced by special sequences of partitions. The method is demonstrated to be effective in obtaining upper bounds on the expected value of the supremum of the absolute value of increments of a process from estimates on the tail of the increments.
