Foreword
Piet van der Kruit
Kapteyn Astronomical Institute, University of Groningen, The Netherlands
In the first place I would like to say that I am extremely grateful that thisconference took place. It was a very stimulating and exciting meeting. Thespeakers and contributors to the discussion were all very inspiring and the Sci-entific Organising Committee put together a most interesting program. It wasalso helpful that the meeting was held in the same place where we were stay-ing and had our meals, the Schylge Hotel on the beautiful Frisian island ofTerschelling. I am very pleased that so many young astronomers took part andmade use of the many opportunities at meals and in the evenings to talk to olderastronomers. For me personally it was great to see many colleagues that haveworked in the same field as I and whom I often have known and respected formany years.
I first of all would like to thank those former students of mine that tookthe initiative to hold this symposium and subsequently did most of the hardwork of organising it: Erwin de Blok (although really and truly a student ofThijs van der Hulst), Richard de Grijs, Roelof de Jong, Johan Knapen andEline Tolstoy (whose real supervisor was Abi Saha). In particular I am verygrateful to Roelof de Jong, who chaired the Scientific Organising Committee,designed the poster and the logo and edited these proceedings. And also toEline Tolstoy, who chaired the Local Organising Committee. I know it tookboth of them valuable time that they would have devoted to research, but whatthey did here was certainly also an important contribution to astronomy.
I thank all members of the SOC for all their input; with a few exceptionsthey are colleagues that I had collaborations with over the years. I have beenvery impressed by the way in which the LOC organized the meeting, tookcare of all arrangements and gave the participants all support they required.Greta, Peter, Isabel, Hans, Eline, Thijs, Hennie and Jackie: it was wonderful.And I thank all participants for this stimulating week. I would like to thankthree more persons in particular. I thank Mike Disney for the very nice portretreproduced in this book and his afterdinner speech at the conference barbecue,which was followed by a very moving applause for me by all attending. And Ithank Ken Freeman for giving the opening review (as I had the honor to do athis conference on Dunk Island) and Tim de Zeeuw for doing me the honor ofgiving the conference summary.

xiv Foreword
Tim de Zeeuw and Ken Freeman mentioned in their contributions the “vander Kruit guilder”. I would like to take this opportunity to tell the backgroundof this, since most of the credit for it should go to Leonard Searle.
We were writing paper III and IV in our series in September 1981 duringa visit that Leonard made to Groningen. I said to him that I felt he should befirst author on paper IV. He immediately refused, arguing that I had initiatedthe project, produced most of the ideas and had done most the work. My replywas that it had been very much a collaboration and that therefere I felt it wouldbe very appropriate. Leonard thought about it overnight (he woke up earlybecause he still suffered from jetlag) but stayed firmly with his opinion, evento the extent that he felt we should make a joke about it. He therefore had madeup the text of a possible footnote to the title of paper IV and he showed it tome. I gave in, to a large extent because I so much liked the footnote. It wasincluded precisely as Leonard suggested and for completeness I cite it: “Theorder of the authors’ names in this series of papers has been decided in eachcase by tossing a coin. The coin used for this purpose is fully described ina forthcoming monograph “The van der Kruitguilder” to be published in theSeries “Curiosités Numismatiques”, Monte Carlo.”
In those days we had no Internet or preprint servers and preprints were dis-tributed on paper. Also there was no ADS and most institutes had especiallyprinted postcards to fill out and sent to authors requesting reprints after publi-cation. After the preprints of papers III and IV went out, I started getting suchpostcards requesting preprints of the monograph in the footnote. So after a fewof these I made up the page that Tim has included in his contribution to thisbook and sent that in return. However, it was Leonard who first suggested thefootnote and composed it.
For the record I note that the coin has been “used” also by Rosie Wyse (afterasking me for permission) for a paper she wrote with Gerry Gilmore (Wyse &Gilmore, 1986, A.J. 91, 855). On the first page a footnote appears: “The orderof the authors’ names was decided by tossing a coin. This coin, the van derKruit guilder (van der Kruit and Searle 1986), was kindly made available tothe first author by P.C. van der Kruit." The year was now 1986. Indeed the listof references at the end of the Wise & Gilmore paper contains “van der Kruit,P.C. and Searle, L. (1986), In Curiosités Numismatiques (to be published)”.

Preface
The Island Universe: Structure and Evolution of Disk Galaxies conferencewas held on the island of Terschelling from 3–8 July, 2005. It was attendedby 125 registered participants coming from 23 different countries. A total of54 oral papers were delivered including a conference summary. Furthermore,more than 50 posters were presented, which were summarized in two shortpresentations.
The idea for the meeting originated when Prof. Piet van der Kruit met withsome former students and indicated that he was interested in organizing a con-ference. When Piet subsequently was appointed on a new honorary chair —the Jacobus C. Kapteyn Professorship in Astronomy — a reason to organize themeeting had been found. We would organize the meeting to celebrate Piet’sachievements in astronomy and thank him for his generous contributions toastro-politics and administration.
The topic of the conference had to be a tribute to Piet’s life long scienceinterest: the properties of disk galaxies. The goal of the meeting was to takeinventory of our current knowledge of the structure and content of disk galax-ies, to present models of formation and evolution leading to disk galaxies, andto bring together observers and theorists to investigate paths for future research.
The band of former students was expanded to a full SOC (see xix), an LOCwas formed at the Kapteyn Astronomical Institute, and the organization of themeeting started in earnest. While Piet had indicated that he would like themeeting to take place on Svalbard/Spitsbergen, it was quickly determined thatthis was not practical for logistical and financial reasons. We were lucky tofind as a very good alternative conference center and hotel “Schylge” on theisland of Terschelling, which allowed us to board all participants at the sameplace where the oral and poster presentations were delivered, without even tohave to share the hotel with any other guests. This remote location, away fromthe daily bustle, significantly contributed to the success of the meeting.
The meeting was organized along eight broad topics. Each topic was intro-duced by a review speaker, followed by invited and contributed presentations.The same structure as used during the meeting is used in these proceedings,with the contributions ordered within each topic as they were presented duringthe meeting, followed by the poster contributions that fit best in that session.I hope these proceedings will portrait the atmosphere of an fruitful and enjoy-able meeting, and carry the invitation for the next (at Spitsbergen?).

The “Island Universes” conference and these proceedings would not havebeen possible without the support of a large number of people and institutions.
First and foremost I want to thank Piet van der Kruit, without whose contin-ued support for me and his other (former) students (see p. xvi) this conferenceand these proceedings never would have been.
I want to thank the Science Organizing Committee for helping me to makea very interesting and stimulating science program, that fostered lots of gooddiscussions. I am very much indebted to the Local Organizing Committee fortheir tireless efforts before the meeting and their excellent support during themeeting, making everything run so smoothly.
The conference received financial support from the annual grant of the Fac-ulty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences awarded to Prof. van der Kruitfor his J.C. Kapteyn Professorship, the Kapteyn Astronomical Institute, theKoninklijke Nederlandse Akademie van Wetenschappen (KNAW), the LeidsKerkhoven-Bosscha Fonds (LKBF), Netherlands Research School for Astron-omy (NOVA), and the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO).
