The Evolving Universe Selected Topics on Large-Scale Structure and on the Properties of Galaxies

1. The Workshop and this Tome In the excellent bucolic setting of SchloB Ringberg in Upper Bavaria, over 50 scientists assembled during the week of 23-28 September 1996 to discuss recent results, both theoretical and observational in nature, on the large­ scale structure of the Universe. Such a topi...
