Language: English

This thematic issue of the JEHPS has for object the origin and the development of exploratory methods of multidimensional statistics in the 20th century, without going beyond the 1980s. Since two (out of nine) contributions will be in French, let us note right away that the English equivalent of the French phrase "analyse des données" would be something like exploratory multivariate data analysis. Indeed, the English expression data analysis is used in a more general sense to designate applied statistics (with a pragmatic and computational connotation).
