Looking back: A life of statistical ecology

By Dr. Laszlo Orloci

This book tells a personal story that begins in the '30s, a time of peace, order and prosperity for the author's family, and ends in 2012 when the idea of the book was first conceived. The story offers recollections of the pre-World War II period, the war years and their aftermath under Soviet occupation and ruthless dictatorial rule, the author's involvement in the 1956 Hungarian revolution that failed, and finally, freedom and academic career in Canada. Much of the narrative portrays the author's professional life framed by two questions. How did statistical ecology affect me? And how did I, a forest engineer, affect statistical ecology? The book covers seventeen interconnected sections but not in strict chronological order.
