Review text

This paper surveys the many fundamental contributions made by Ellis to modern topological dynamics. There are no proofs or formal statements, but careful references are provided. The highpoints of distality, the Ellis ``Galois correspondence and structure theory, Poisson systems and the Ellis enveloping semigroup are described. This paper offers a valuable perspective on Ellis' many contributions from two authors who themselves have made many fundamental contributions. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0882.00043].
