Tales of Statisticians
Eric Temple Bell
Bell was no statistician, rather a number theoretician. He was and remains one of the great mathematical statesmen. His book Men of Mathematics has inspired scores to take up a mathematical career, and revealed to uncounted thousands what a mathematical life is all about in the first place. His own early life was a mystery until parts of it were unraveled by Constance Reid Bell retired from CalTech in 1951, and died at the age of 77 in 1960. With the assistance of D H Lehmer, who had provided the otherwise missing final chapter, he had just completed a book entitled The Last Problem. It was about Fermat, to whom and whose tantalizingly unproved Last Theorem a chapter of Men of Mathematics had already been devoted. Bell's conviction at the time, that Fermat's unmatched insight into the character of numbers did not mislead him as to the existence of a proof, was vindicated recently when a proof was finally found. Bell's infectious love of number, his sense of the large sweep of mathematical history, and his generous anger at the fools and poopheads who all too densely populate that history, are his chief legacy to posterity.

ERIC TEMPLE BELL
Abstractness, sometimes hurled as a reproach at mathematics, is its chief glory and its surest title to practical usefulness. It is also the source of such beauty as may spring from mathematics.
Abstract

It is the perennial youthfulness of mathematics itself which marks it off with a disconcerting immortality from the other sciences.
Mathematics

"Obvious" is the most dangerous word in mathematics.

    Bell, Eric Temple
    (b. Feb. 7, 1883, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Scot.d. Dec. 21, 1960, Watsonville, Calif., U.S.), Scottish-American mathematician, educator, and writer who discovered several important theorems in the field of number theory, a branch of mathematics dealing with the properties of integers. Bell immigrated to the United States at the age of 19 and immediately enrolled at Stanford University, where, after only two years, he earned his bachelor's degree. He received his master's degree from the University of Washington in 1908. Receiving his doctorate in mathematics from Columbia University in 1912, Bell immediately accepted a position at the University of Washington teaching mathematics. He held this position until 1926, when he was named professor of mathematics at the California Institute of Technology. Bell combined his teaching with mathematical research, developing and publishing his ideas on the theory of numbers. From 1931 to 1933 he served as president of the Mathematical Association of America. Algebraic Arithmetic (1927) and The Development of Mathematics (1940), became standards in the field, the latter outlining in clear, concise language what Bell believed to be the most significant trends in mathematics.
