Introduction The first jnternational conference on Probability in Banach Spaces was held at Oberwolfach, West Germany in 1975. It brought together European researchers who, under the inspiration of the Schwartz seminar in Paris, were using probabilistic methods in the study of the geometry of Banach spaces, a rather small number of probabilists who were already studying classical limit laws on Banach spaces and a larger number of probabilists, specialists in various aspects of the study of Gaussian processes, whose results and techniques were of interest to the members of the first two groups. This first conference was very fruitful. It fostered a continuing relationship amongst fifty to seventy-five probabilists and analysts working on probability on infinite-dimensional spaces, the geometry of Banach spaces and the use of random methods in harmonic analysis. Three more international conferences were held, two at Oberwolfach in 1978 and 1982 and one at Tufts University in 1980. This volume contains a selection of papers by the participants of the Fifth International Conference held at Medford, Massachusetts, July 16-27, 1984.
