About the Author

Paul R. Yarnold, Ph.D. was the first-born American in a family formed by circumstance due to relocations motivated by WWII. His father developed math used by anti-missile guidance systems, so the family lived in many states, coast-to-coast-to-coast. Paul was admitted to college at the age of twelve and began taking courses a week after his thirteenth birthday. During this time, he became a national-class speaker (National Forensic League) and chess player (USCF). He played baseball in clubs and college, then became a national-class ten-pin bowler. Paul became the youngest-ever Research Full Professor of Medicine, and of Emergency Medicine, at Northwestern University Medical School. Simultaneously he was Adjunct Full Professor of Academic Psychology (specializing in Behavioral Medicine, Game Theory, and Statistics) at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Paul formed a classical rock and classic blues band (he played the bass) and became a national class amateur high-power rocketeer. After thirty years, he left Chicago to live by the big-game fishing wharf in Point Loma, San Diego. Paul became a sponsored “stand-up” tuna angler, a mannequin model for Guess, and created a statistics consulting company. He discovered quantum mechanics for non-Hilbert data (the most accurate statistical analysis paradigm ever created) and founded the Optimal Data Analysis eJournal, the most widely-read scientific journal in history, now read by scientists in 192 countries. Then Paul returned to Chicago and worked remotely as an Adjunct Full Professor of Pharmacy at the University of South Carolina for five years. Presently he serves as a statistical/methodological consultant working with seminal scientists on leading medical frontiers, continues conducting theoretical statistics research, and writes short stories on a wealth of topics.
