Bryan F. J. Manly, PhD, was born in London, UK on May 27, 1944, and he is practically retired from academic work. His areas of interest are in statistical ecology, environmental statistics, computer intensive statistics, and general applied statistics. He is the author of over two hundred papers and seven books that have been both fundamental statistical research, and applications to several related disciplines. Bryan’s academic career began in 1966 as a statistician and one of the first computer programmers, at the British multinational manufacturer Fisons, marking the start of a brilliant career as a researcher and statistical consultant in several countries around the world: University of Salford (UK), University of Papua New Guinea, University of Otago (New Zealand), Louisiana State University, University of Wyoming, and WEST, Inc. (USA). Among other distinctions, he is an Elected Fellow of the Royal Society of New Zealand, and he was awarded as Distinguished Statistical Ecologist in the International Ecology Congress, held in Manchester, 1994. Bryan is an excellent connoisseur of home brewing and homemade wine; everybody praises his good hand in making peerless wine!

Dr. Navarro Alberto earned his PhD degree in Statistics at the University of Otago, New Zealand. His academic career spanned more than 36 years teaching statistics for biologists, marine biologists, and natural resource managers in Mexico, and as a visiting professor at the University of Wyoming, with a vast experience in teaching multivariate analysis courses for life scientists. He is the co-author of the last edition of the book Randomization, Bootstrap and Monte Carlo Methods in Biology, and the co-editor of Introduction to Ecological Sampling, published by CRC Press. After retirement, Jorge is still active in the professional and academic arenas, working as a (more relaxed) part-time statistical consultant, and as one of the associate editors of the international journal, Environmental and Ecological Statistics.

He is the author or a coauthor of over ninety research articles, books, and book chapters, in topics ranging from the molecular and cellular world to the visible world around us (plant, animal, and human systems). Ken considers himself to be a parasitic biologist because he only publishes with other people's data.
