John N. Warfield (1925ÔÇô2009): a pioneer in the systems movement
Summary: Pending
I put this in the JWPAPERS folder with other papers, also keeping a copy under filename "Klir's obituary-John-Warfield.pdf" in the folder on John's funeral;
Klir was editor of the journal which published "Systems Movement: Autobiographical Retrospectives, Discovering Systems Science" the very nice autobiographical article that John wrote in 2003. Also Klir published other articles by John, and would have published more were it not for difficulties getting referee approval. One article which John wanted to publish very much did not get printed for that reason. When talking about it later, I remember John's comments. John himself had been an editor, of two journals. I have seen him caught between referee and author in his own editing experience. I remember him saying "You can't go against your referees. An editor has to respect the referee. That is what a peer review means."

ps I think I probably sent a copy of this to Gmu in the April 2013 boxed shipment of papers.
