Biographical/Historical Note
Polish-russian empire-soviet union-german mathematician, economist, statistician, and professor (1868–1931); Fellow of the Royal Statistical Society; member of Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences ♂
Russian economist and statistician
In his book The Law of Small Numbers he first noted that events with low frequency in a large population follow a Poisson distribution even when the probabilities of the events varied. It was that book that made the Prussian horse-kicking data famous.
