This volume is about Structure. The search for structure, always the pursuit of sciences within their specific areas and perspectives, is witnessing these days a dra- matic revolution. The coexistence and interaction of so many structures (atoms, hu- mans, cosmos and all that there is in between) would be unconceivable according to many experts, if there were not, behind it all, some gen- eral organizational principle. s that (at least in some asymptotic way) make possible so many equilibria among species and natural objects, fan- tastically tuned to an extremely high degree of precision. The evidence accumulates to an increasingly impressive degree; a concrete example comes from physics, whose constant aim always was and is that of searching for ultimate laws, out of which everything should follow, from quarks to the cosmos. Our notions and philosophy have un- dergone major revolutions, whenever the unthinkable has been changed by its wonderful endeavours into fact. Well, it is just from physics that evidence comes: even if the ultimate could be reached, it would not in any way be a terminal point. When complexity comes into the game, entirely new notions have to be invented; they all have to do with structure, though this time in a much wider sense than would have been understood a decade or so ago.
