In order to outline possible future directions in galaxy research,
this book wants to be a short stopover, a moment of self-reflection
of the past century of achievements in this area. Since the
pioneering years of galaxy research in the early 20th century, the
research on galaxies has seen a relentless advance directly
connected to the parallel exponential growth of new technologies.
Through a series of interviews with distinguished astronomers the
editors provide a snapshot of the achievements obtained in
understanding galaxies. While many initial questions about their
nature have been addressed, many are still open and require new
efforts to achieve a solution. The discussions may reveal paradigms
worthwhile revisiting. With the help of some of those scientists
who have contributed to it, the editors sketch the history of this
scientific journey and ask them for inspirations for future
directions of galaxy research.
