Reprinted from Astrophysics and Space Science vol. 205, no. 1 (1993), over 30 articles discuss aspects of some nearby galaxies. The topics include circumnuclear populations in nearby AGN, the starburst scenario for radio emission in active galaxies, radiation from arbitrarily shaped objects in the v
