P. J. MESSAGE University of Liverpool The papers which comprise
this volume were presented at Colloquium No. 41 of the
International Astronimical Union, which was held in Cambridge,
England, from the 17th to the 19th of August, 1976, and had as its
subject 'Dynamics of Planets and Satellites and Theories of their
Motion'. The Colloquium was held just prior to the XVIth General
Assembly of the Union (which was held from 24th August to 2nd
September, in Grenoble, France) to provide an opportunity for the
presentation of research papers on a number of active and lively
branches of Celestial Mechanics to a gathering of experts in the
field, and for the stimulus of discussion of research problems of
interest to participants. A number of papers testify to the
progress being made in General Planetary Theory, the theories of
motion of the minor planets, the Moon, and the satellites of
Jupiter and Saturn, and to significant advances in both the general
and restricted gravitational problems of three bodies. The
Organizing Committee of the Colloquium was comprised of J.
Chapront, R. L. Duncombe, J. Hadjidemetriou, Y. Kozai, B. Morando,
J. Schubart, V. Szebehely, and P. J. Message (Chairman). The local
Organizer was D. C. Heggie, to whose tireless efforts the success
of the arrangements is due. IX LIST OF PARTICIPANTS N. Abu-el-Ata,
