The papers in Circumstellar Matter 1994 cover a range of scenarios, from disk and envelope around young stellar objects and protostars through to more aged stars and highly-evolved objects which exhibit considerable mass loss features. Significant advances and developments in observing facilities, instrumentation, computing power and techniques are described, together with a variety of theories, suggestions, observations and models describing the formation, composition, effects and evolution of the material surrounding a stellar environment. Audience: Researchers and graduate students interested in star formation and evolved stars.
