Dramatic progress is a trademark of the recent study of globular
cluster systems. Considerations about the formation and evolution
compose the first chapter, followed by a chapter on young star
clusters. Then come four chapters reviewing the globular cluster
system of early-type, late-type and dwarf galaxies, as well as of
groups of galaxies. One chapter is dedicated to stellar population
models and their applications to the field. Finally a chapter
reviews the kinematics of galaxies derived from globular cluster
systems and another their role in the context of galaxy formation
and evolution studies. As a whole, the book gives an up-to-date
view of the field at the beginning of the new decade, which will
without doubt again bring significant progress in our understanding
of globular cluster systems and galaxy formation and evolution.
