Abstract
Martin David Kruskal was one of the most versatile theoretical physicists of his generation and is distinguished for his enduring work in several different areas, most notably plasma physics, a memorable detour into relativity and his pioneering work in nonlinear waves. In the latter, together with Norman Zabusky, he invented the concept of the soliton and, with others, developed its application to classes of partial differential equations of physical significance.
