It attracted over 100 participants from over 25 countries. The lectures covered a broad range of topics, including spaces and algebras of analytic functions of one and of many vari- ables (and operators on such spaces), LP-spaces, spaces of Banach-valued functions, isometries of function spaces, geometry of Banach spaces, and other related sub- jects. The main purpose of the Conference was to bring together mathematicians interested in various problems within the general area of function spaces and to al- low a free discussion
