An international conference on algebraic topology was held July 27 to August 2, 1986, at Humboldt State University in Arcata, California, prior to ICM86 in Berkeley. The conference served in part to celebrate the silver jubilee of the journal Topology, and the sixtieth birthday of Edgar H. Brown. It was supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation and a bequest from Pergammon Press, publishers of Topology.

The Proceedings contain papers submitted by conference participants. All were refereed, and we take this occasion to thank the referees. We would also like to thank the staff of the Jolly Giant Conference Center for its assistance in organizing this conference.
