| Abstract: | Operational research and statistics share many common features. A review of the historical development and of some current dilemmas in operational research is given, in the belief that the narrative will fulfil a wider purpose by causing statisticians to reflect on related aspects of the evolution of their own subject in a rapidly changing environment. |
