Biographical notes on G.K. Zipf

Harvard philologist George Kingsley Zipf has been underestimated by mainstream linguistics for the past half century. After short consideration of the significance of Zipf's work, this paper presents a personal account of Zipf's family background, carreer and private life by one of his sons. An extensive Bibliography is added.
