Hoeffding (1914-1991) was born in Petersburg and educated in Berlin, but lived since 1945 in the USA. The book contains reprints of 51 of his contributions and their ad hoc reviews (K. Oosterhoff and W. van Zwet, W. Hoeffding's work in the sixties; G. Simons, The impact of W. Hoeffding's work on sequential analysis; and P. K. Sen, The impact of W. Hoeffding's research on nonparametrics). No list of Hoeffding's publications is provided, but, except for a mimeo report (1963) mentioned on p. 53, neither his own references nor those of his reviewers include any missed article. The reprints include three German papers (1940-1942) translated here into English, five entries from the ``Enc. stat. sciences'', six book reviews and Hoeffding's autobiography (1982).
