Thisvolumecontainsthewrittenversionsofinvitedlecturespresentedat the"39. InternationaleUniversitatswochenfur .. Kern-undTeilchenphysik"in Schladming, Austria, which took place from February 26th to March 4th, 2000. The title of the school was "Methods of Quantization". This is, of course,averybroad?eld,soonlysomeofthenewandinterestingdevel- mentscouldbecoveredwithinthescopeoftheschool.
