Riassunto:

Eleven of the world's greatest living astronomers and cosmologists present their personal views of key problems in contemporary astronomy and cosmology.

Recensione: 'This book is a very interesting collection for scientists working in astronomy and for students who want to learn more on the key questions of astronomy of today.' Reviews of Astronomical Tools

'For authoritative surveys, breadth and depth of coverage of the field of modern astro-physics and cosmology, and lively recorded exchanges following the talks, this volume must be well-nigh impossible to beat. In my view it is a rare example of published conference proceedings which are actually worth buying. It is an excellent storehouse of ideas for future research and is greatly recommended to students and researchers in astronomy and astrophysics.' Lewis Ryder, Astronomy Now

'Overall, the book gives a unique review of our current understandings of the Universe which are then developed to provide a host of ideas of lines for profitable future research.' Spaceflight
