The reader will find in this volume the Proceedings of the NATO
Advanced Study Institute held in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy between
August 6 and August 17, 1990 under the title "Predictability,
Stability, and Chaos in N-Body Dynamical Systems". The Institute
was the latest in a series held at three-yearly inter vals from
1972 to 1987 in dynamical astronomy, theoretical mechanics and
celestial mechanics. These previous institutes, held in high esteem
by the international community of research workers, have resulted
in a series of well-received Proceedings. The 1990 Institute
attracted 74 participants from 16 countries, six outside the NATO
group. Fifteen series of lectures were given by invited speakers;
additionally some 40 valuable presentations were made by the
younger participants, most of which are included in these
Proceedings. The last twenty years in particular has been a time of
increasingly rapid progress in tackling long-standing and also
newly-arising problems in dynamics of N-body systems, point-mass
and non-point-mass, a rate of progress achieved because of
correspondingly rapid developments of new computer hardware and
software together with the advent of new analytical techniques. It
was a time of exciting progress culminating in the ability to carry
out research programmes into the evolution of the outer Solar 8
System over periods of more than 10 years and to study star cluster
and galactic models in unprecedented detail.
