Summary This is a memorial volume dedicated to A.L.S. Corner, previously Professor in Oxford, who published important results on algebra, especially on the connections of modules with endomorphism algebras. The volume contains refereed contributions which are related to the work of Corner. It contains also an unpublished extended paper of Corner himself
