I enjoy reading about the minutiae of its daily unfolding: the coinage, food, clothes, games, literature and habits which characterize a people. I am carried away by the broad sweep of its major events: the wars, famines, migrations, reforms, political swings and scientific advances which shape a society. I know that historians value autobiographical accounts as part of the basic material from which the stuff of history is distilled; this should apply no less to statistical than to political or social history. Modem statistics is a relatively young science; it was while pondering this fact sometime in 1980 that I realized th...

Contributions to Probability: A Collection of Papers Dedicated to Eugene Lukacs is a collection of papers that reflect Professor Eugene Lukacs' broad range of research interests. This text celebrates the 75th birthday of Eugene Lukacs, mathematician, teacher, and research worker in probability and mathematical statistics. This book is organized into two parts encompassing 23 chapters. Part I consists of papers in probability theory, limit theorems, and stochastic processes. This part also deals with the continuation and arithmetic of distribution functions, the arc sine law, Fourier transform methods, and nondifferentiality of the Wiener sheet. Part II includes papers in information and statistical theories. This book will prove useful to statisticians, mathematicians, and advance mathematics students.
Presents a biographical sketch of Hungarian mathematician Eugene Lukacs (1906-1987), compiled as part of the MacTutor History of Mathematics Archive of the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Saint Andrews in Scotland. Notes that Lukac's most famous work was "Characteristic Functions."
