The shapes of galaxies and their dark halos : Yale Cosmology Workshop, New Haven, Connecticut, USA, 28-30 May 2001 /

This book constitutes the proceedings of a very topical workshop aimed at understanding the shapes of the baryonic and dark matter components of galaxies. Several groups presented their recent results from observations and numerical N-body simulations.
