Abstract
The maturity of an academic discipline manifests itself in a variety of ways. One of these, an essentially historical manifestation, is the attention which a discipline pays to its pioneers. This article seeks to continue this maturation process through an examination of the life of Leslie Arthur Schumer, an Australian cost accountant.
