The current conference focusses on key aspects of the Local Group, composed of the Milky Way, Andromeda and Triangulum Spiral Galaxies, the Large and Small Magellanic Cloud galaxies, numerous dwarf and irregular galaxies, and intergalactic gas. Topics include the halo and thick disk of the Milky Way with its first stars and stellar streams; the Milky Way bar, bulge and outer edge; interstellar dust and turbulence; star formation processes and stellar scattering in spiral arms; views through the infrared Eyes of the Spitzer Space Telescope; globular clusters; the Local Gould Belt; stellar metallicities and elemental abundances; the environment and black hole in the Milky Way nucleus; orbits of the Magellanic Clouds and galaxy dwarfs; interstellar dust and turbulence; the outer disks and halos of the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies; ripples from a collision in Andromeda; and arcs of carbon stars in the Triangulum and intergalactic clouds. This volume also discusses surveys of planetary nebulae, galaxy morphology at low and high redshift, cosmic evolution of star and galaxy formation and gas accretion, Lyman alpha emitting galaxies, ultra-low surface brightness imaging, and more. Readers are given a clear and comprehensive view of this wide range of topics written by specialists in each field. This is the proceedings of an International Conference at the Seychelles archipelago in May 2014, on the occasion of the 60th birthday of David Block and the millionth (base two) birthday of Bruce Elmegreen. 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aAstrophysics 606 $aAstronomy, Astrophysics and Cosmology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22006 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 0$aAstrophysics. 615 14$aAstronomy, Astrophysics and Cosmology. 676 $a520 676 $a523.1/12 702 $aFreeman$b Kenneth$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aElmegreen$b Bruce$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aBlock$b David$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWoolway$b Matthew$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300420103321 996 $aLessons from the Local Group$91771606 997 $aUNINA
