Particle physics seems to be entering a new period of consoli-
dation. In 1977 when the first summer institute on particles and
fields was held at the Banff Center, the standard model of the
electro-weak interaction was a promising model more or less con-
firmed; today it seems quite well-confirmed. QCD was considered as
probably the correct theory of strong interactions; today most
theo- rists take it for granted. What seems to be lacking are
computa- tional tools and strenuous experimental testing; the major
ideas seem to exist. Thus, this is a particularly auspicious time
for a review of the status of theoretical and experimental particle
physics and field theory. The lectures collected in this volume
were presented from August 16 to August 27, 1981 at the Banff
Center in Banff, Canada. The unifying theme was gauge fields and
the topics covered dealt with electro-weak interactions, Q.C.D.,
sub-quarks and unified theories. The format of the Institute was as
follows: thirteen lecture series of two to four hours each given by
S. Brodsky, D. Bryman, M. Chen, S. Coleman, M. Creutz, H. Harari,
J. Iliopoulos, C.H. Llewellyn- Smith, P. Lepage, D. Perkins and L.
Susskind. In addition there were nine seminars (one hour each)
given by G. Bodwin, G. Bunce, M.
