The density structure of the extended haloes of Planetary Nebulae (PN) is generally believed to reflect the previous history of heavy mass loss during the final stages of stellar evolution on the asymptotic giant-branch (AGB). In this review, we discuss different interpretations of the observed PN halo structures in the light of recent numerical simulations combining detailed AGB and post-AGB stellar evolution calculations with time-dependent hydrodynamical wind models.
