W artykule przedstawiono sylwetkę prof. Jana Piekałkiewicza — wybitnego statystyka, ekonomisty i polityka — począwszy od powstania w 1918 r. państwa polskiego aż do tragicznej śmierci uczonego z rąk gestapo w 1943 r. Podkreślono również rolę Polskiego Towarzystwa Statystycznego (powołanego w 1912 r.) w opracowaniu informacji statystycznych z trzech zaborów oraz starania statystyków i przedstawicieli innych środowisk, które doprowadziły do powołania w lipcu 1918 r. Głównego Urzędu Statystycznego. Uwydatniono wkład prof. Piekałkiewicza w rozwój GUS w pierwszych latach jego działalności oraz przybliżono dorobek naukowy profesora i jego pracę dydaktyczną w zakresie statystyki prowadzoną na wyższych uczelniach. Wspomniano również o jego aktywności jako polityka.

The article presents the profile of Prof. Jan Piekałkiewicz — an outstanding statistician, economist and politician — starting from the creation of the Polish state in 1918 until the tragic death of the scientist caused by the Gestapo in 1943. It also highlights the role of the Polish Statistical Association (founded in 1912) in the preparation of statistical information from the three partitions and the efforts of statisticians and representatives of other circles, which led to the establishment of Statistics Poland in July 1918. Contribution of Prof. Piekałkiewicz to the development of Statistics Poland in the first years of his activity was highlighted, as well as his scientific achievements and didactic work in the field of statistics conducted at universities were presented. His activity as a politician was also mentioned.

At the beginning of the 20th century, there was an active debate about random selection of units versus purposive selection of groups of units for survey samples. Neyman's (1934) paper tilted the balance strongly towards varieties of probability sampling combined with design-based inference, and most national statistical offices have adopted this method for their major surveys. However, nonprobability sampling has remained in widespread use in many areas of application, and over time there have been challenges to the Neyman paradigm. In recent years, the balance has tilted towards greater use of nonprobability sampling for several reasons, including: the growing imperfections and costs in applying probability sample designs; the emergence of the internet and other sources for obtaining survey data from very large samples at low cost and at high speed; and the current ability to apply advanced methods for calibrating nonprobability samples to conform to external population controls. This paper presents an overview of the history of the use of probability and nonprobability sampling from the birth of survey sampling at the time of A. N. Kiaer (1895) to the present day.

In the paper I try to describe the phenomenon of the Polish School of Mathematics. It requires the presentation and analysis of the many factors that have had an influence on its creation and development. It is impossible to do so in such article yet I try to show, however, its essence and strength through an analysis up until the point that World War II brutally ended its development. I focus on the mathematicians who were forced to emigrate and created important mathematical centres in other countries. Thus, the program and atmosphere of Polish Mathematical School was continued.
