Every 5 years since 1967 a meeting has been held to discuss the
subject of planetary nebulae and their central stars. Previous
meetings have been held in Tatranska Lomnica (Czechoslovakia);
Liege (Belgium); Ithaca, New York (U. S. A); and London (Great
Britain). IAU Symposium 131 was sponsored by IAU Commision 34, on
Interstellar Matter and co-sponsored by IAU Commisions 35 and 36 on
Stellar Constitution and Theory of Stellar Atmospheres. The
symposium was held at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico
in Mexico City, October 5-9, 1987. It took place in one of the old
buildings of the University of Mexico in the downtown area. The
inner patio of the building provided very pleasant surroundings for
the poster sessions and for extensive discussions among the
participants. The meeting was attended by 160 scientists from 22
countries. The Scientific Organizing Committee, under the
chairmanship of J.B. Kaler, prepared a comprehensive scientific
program based on a set of invited presentations. All contributed
papers were presented in poster form. The Scientific Organizing
Committee would like to thank the staff of the University of
Illinois Department of Astronomy: Dr. Ron Allen for granting
financial support; Carol Stickrod, Louise Browning, Deana Griffin
and Sandie Osterbur for their help with the organization. IAU
provided economic assistance to a group of young astronomers
