This School focussed on computation in theoretical particle physics. Accordingly, it had large components on collider phenomenology and lattice gauge theory. A number of lectures on current topics in modern mathematical physics (conformal field theory, quantum gravity, and sphalerons) were included.

This unique volume brings together eastern and western perspectives on consciousness with essays from philosophers and scientists which emphasize different aspects of the integration. The overarching aim of this book is to provide direction toward integrating Eastern philosophical and religious practice with philosophies and science of Western culture, an aim that could be pivotal in understanding consciousness and its place in nature. A unifying approach is adopted to the study of consciousness, integrating the wisdom of the sages of the east, and the scientists of the west and the stupendous east-west integration that has been achieved is indeed a milestone. The book will appeal to the rapidly growing mass of scientists and students in this upcoming field, both in the east and west, as well as the general inquisitive reader. Courses in consciousness studies are being promoted in leading Universities all over the world. It will also interest the followers and adherents of Eastern Philosophy of Saints and Radhasoami Faith numbering in a few millions around the globe.

The implications of the latest results from high energy experiments as well as non-accelerator experiments are discussed in this proceedings. Emphasis is given to neutrino physics, tests of the standard electroweak theory, and its extensions. Perspectives for the physics of the new decade are also considered.

This book constitutes the proceedings of an up-to-date and comprehensive meeting devoted to the question whether baryon number violation can occur — in the standard model of weak and electromagnetic interactions — at rates which can be relevant to cosmology and particle experiment. There has been a great deal of activity and many new results in the past year, and the meeting was the first occasion for a review of the field. It is the only source in which all the work in this field is reviewed in a single volume. As such, it would provide a useful reference for graduate students and researchers wanting to learn more about this area.

This conference celebrates the 40th anniversary of the first Rochester Conference and honours Prof. Susumu Okubo on his 60th birthday. The original Rochester Conference brought a small group of leading physicists to discuss current results and trends in both theory and experiment. The present conference has also adhered to this format — covering the developments in particle physics over the last forty years and presenting the latest theoretical and experimental results in the field.

The Theoretical Advanced Study Institute (TASI) has become the major summer school for advanced students in elementary particle theory in the United States, offering courses in particle theory, phenomenology, and mathematical physics. The theme of the 1990 school, 'Testing the Standard Model', was chosen because of the many new high precision results that had recently become available from the TEVATRON, SLC, and LEP. The goal was to explore the theoretical background and implications of experiments at these and future facilities, both in and beyond the standard model.

Particle physics and cosmology are united in the standard hot big bang model. This volume contains pedagogical lectures on the experimental and theoretical status of the standard models of particle physics and cosmology as well as their extensions, with an overall focus on the strong interplay between these two fields.
