A refreshing aspect of Gosset's letters is that they reveal his likable and modest character: he describes his own contribution to the 1914-18 war as 'to brew Guinness stout in such a way as to waste as little labour and material as possible'. Similarly, his dislike of controversy is illustrated in his letters written at the time of publication of Fisher's Statistical methods for research workers, but which still serve to show Gosset's own strong views on the book.
