Guide

The chapters in this volume were presented to the 18th summer course of the International School on Disarmament and Research on Conflicts (ISODARCO) held at the Certosa di Pontignano (Siena), Italy, between 29 July and 8 August 1996.

The organization of the school was made possible by the financial contributions of two organizations and the generous collaboration of several individuals without which these meetings would have not been possible and to whom goes our deepest gratitude: The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation; Prof. Alessandro Pascolini and Prof. Dietrich Schroeer, directors of the course and editors of the book; the Physics Department of the University of Rome 'Tor Vergata'; Prof. Maria Vegni, of the Biology Department of the University of Siena; The Regional Council of the Toscana Region; Dr Isabella Colace of the ISODARCO office in Rome. For hospitality we are indebted to Mr Andrea Machetti and all the personnel of the Certosa di Pontignano.
