Abstract: Abstract During the 1980’s, Ronald V. Book was absorbed in the study of Thue systems, with applications to string-rewriting systems in mind. Influenced by the work of Nivat and his collaborators in the 1970’s ([3]; see also [1]), he focused on classes of Thue systems that operated efficiently but without full computational generality. He had many collaborators in this study, including doctoral students and post-doctoral fellows. His work was influential both directly and indirectly, as many of those who had worked with him continued their research, sometimes with still new collaborators.
