This book contains the proceedings of the 11 'h international
symposium dedicated to the understanding of animal "Life in the
Cold," held at Jungholz (Austria), August 13-18, 2000. In 55
chapters contributed by researchers from 16 countries the current
state of knowledge is reviewed, and the most recent developments
and discussions in this field are highlighted. The first symposium
on hibernation and life in the cold was held in 1959, and from then
on they continued to occur every 3-5 years. The regular occurrence
of these meetings became almost a tradition. A tradition which is
entirely based on the enthusiasm of participants, and was nourished
by scientific progress in this area during the past decades. The
first symposium in 1959 was organised by Charles P. Lyman and
Albert R. Dawe and was almost entirely dedicated to hibernation and
torpor. This has been a backbone topic of the following symposia,
although other aspects of animal energetics, thermal physiology and
biochemistry were included in later meetings.
