Julian Besag - Memories and tributes

We received several dozen tributes and reminiscences of Julian from colleagues, friends and relatives, and these are posted here, broadly categorised by the different periods of his life - see links in the menu to the left. Some of these were spontaneous reactions to news of his passing, others more considered tributes spoken at the memorial gathering. Further contributions are welcome, and can be emailed using the link at the foot of the page. Peter Green and Peter Diggle.

The collection of memories and tributes is now available in booklet form (pdf), for downloading and possible printing. It comes in two styles: standard or permuted. Both are 8Mb, 52 pages; the latter has the pages permuted so that if you print it 2 pages per sheet, on both sides of the paper (and don't `flip pages up'), you will get 12 sheets that can be folded into an A5 booklet, properly paginated.
