The International Symposium on Frontiers of Science was held to celebrate the 80th birthday of Chen Ning Yang, one of the great physicists of the 20th century and arguably the most-admired living scientist in China today. Many of the world's great scientists - including 14 Nobel laureates, one Fields medallist and one Wolf Prize winner - converged on Beijing from all corners of the globe to pay tribute to Professor Yang. The symposium was organized by Tsinghua University, with which Professor Yang has had a lifelong relationship. In 1997, he helped to found the Center for Advanced Study at Tsinghua, was appointed to the university's faculty, and has since devoted his energy to the growth of the Center. This work is a collection of the presentations made at the symposium, covering a wide range of topics and mirroring Professor Yang's research and intellectual interests. It also includes talks given at the birthday banquet
