Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra, Volume 168, Issues 2-3, Pages 125-437 (23 March 2002), Selected papers, Conference held in Coimbra in honour of the 90th birthday of Saunders Mac Lane Summary:

  When Saunders MacLane published, jointly with Samuel Eilenberg, the *rst paper
in category theory, he was 33 years old, and neither of the co-authors had any inkling
that they had just started the development of a vigorous theory that, half a century
later, would attract hundreds of mathematicians to international conferences all over
the world. One of these meetings, held in 1999 in Coimbra, was devoted to the 90th
birthday of Saunders. It was a great pleasure, to hear him lecturing there and seeing him
participating in the lectures of others. The attendance of the conference was excellent,
and it was therefore obvious that for the limited volume of the Journal of Pure and
Applied Algebra devoted to the proceedings hard decisions would be needed. That was
indeed the case, and many an excellent paper had to be diverted to other issues of
that journal. The editors would like to express their cordial thanks to all the referees
for their, often profound and sometimes repeated, e4ort at judging the altogether 43
submissions so that the present choice of the very best ones was made possible. Here
they are. And we use this opportunity to wish Saunders, apart from enjoying this
volume, all the best in the future.
