著名统计学家George E. P. Box去世

I am sorry to inform that Professor George E. P. Box, one of the most influential statisticians of modern times passed away on March 28, 2013.
He was the founder of the Statistics Department at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and one of the pioneers in the neo-Bayesian revival of the 60's.

Box是Fisher的女婿。Daniel 对此事的评价是：What a revenge! 好书《品茶女士》中有相当的篇幅介绍 Box 教授。

The lady tasting tea 这本书值得所有人都看一下。
