Z. Schuss (1937-2018) was an applied mathematician, with several contributions in asymptotic, stochastic processes, PDEs, modeling and signal processing. He is well known for his original approach to the activation escape problem, based on WKB and boundary layer analysis, summarized in six books published by Springer. The text summarizes his intellectual approach in science, views and personal path across the XX century, WWII and his personal contribution to academia.
