This book provides a comprehensive account of the scientific results on high-redshift galaxies accumulated over the past decade. It summarizes and critically discusses the wealth of observational data and the methods that have made it possible to study these very distant and extremely faint objects. The book also describes the observational techniques and instruments used, such as the Lyman-break technique and 8 to 10-meter telescopes, which have been instrumental in identifying and analyzing high-redshift galaxies
