This has become clear from recent sky  surveys, which have shown that distant galaxies, formed early in the  life of the Universe, differ from the nearby ones. \u003cbr\u003e  New observational windows at ultraviolet, infrared and millimetric  wavelengths (provided by ROSAT, IRAM, IUE, IRAS, ISO) have revealed  that galaxies contain a wealth of components: very hot gas, atomic  hydrogen, molecules, dust, dark matter. A significant advance is  expected due to new instruments (VLT, FIRST, XMM) which will allow one  to explore the most distant Universe. \u003cbr\u003e  Three Euroconferences have been planned to punctuate this new epoch in  galactic research, bringing together specialists in various fields of  Astronomy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe first, held in Granada (Spain) in  May 2000, addressed the observational clues. \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eThe second will  take place in October 2001 in St Denis de la Réunion (France)  and will review the basic building blocks and small-scale processes in  galaxy evolution. \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eThe third will take place in July 2002 in Kiel  (Germany) and will be devoted to the overall modelling of galaxy  evolution. \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e  This book contains the proceedings of the first conference.
