Lewin and "Three Decades of X-Ray Binaries from the Point of View of a Theoretician" by E.P.J. van den Heuvel), followed by eight technical sessions (on black holes, accretion disks, binary interactions, evolution, x-ray pulsars, dynamics, wind interactions, and x-ray sources in external galaxies), and conclude with a history of the subject by V.
