Radio surveys play an important role in observational cosmology.
However, until recently the surveys have been either of wide area
but with low sensitivity or of small area with high sensitivity.
Both limit the kinds of cosmology that can be carried out with
radio surveys. This situation has been revolutionised in the past
few years by the availability of new, large-area, high-sensitivity
radio surveys at both low and high radio frequencies. These
significant improvements allow studies based on both the statistics
of the surveys themselves and multiwavelength follow-up of the
galaxies and AGN responsible for the radio emission. It is
therefore an opportune time to summarise progress in this field
with a workshop. This book comprises the proceedings of the
Observational Cosmology with the New Radio Surveys' workshop, held
on Tenerife, January 13-15, 1997. Topics covered include: lessons
learned and important results from earlier surveys, descriptions of
some of the new surveys, clusters of galaxies and large-scale
structure, radio source evolution, CMB studies, gravitational
lensing and multiwavelength studies of distant radio sources.
