Summary
This book is the second of two volumes of the Proceedings of Groups 1993 Galway / St Andrews. There is a full contents of both volumes and papers written by authors with the name of the first author lying in the range H-Z. Contained in this part are the papers of the main speakers A Lubotzky, J Neubüser and E I Zel'manov, and we would like especially to thank them for their contributions both to the conference and to this volume. There is also a collection of problems contributed by conference participants included at the end of the volume. There is some perturbation in strict alphabetical order at the join between the volumes and the first volume contains papers written by authors with the name of the first author lying in the range A-K.
