These are the proceedings of a conference organized by the editors to recognise John Steward Bell on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of his death. The speakers belong to the cream of top physicists. Because of the diversity of their fields, the lectures held had to be either historical or popularizing in nature to be intelligible in this community which came together in honor of J. S. Bell. The contributions are arranged in six parts. The first one, entitled ``John S. Bell -- The Man, begins with a short talk by his wife, Mary Bell; followed by a lecture on his early years and education in Belfast by Andrew Whitacker; about interactions with John Bell by Bernhard d'Espagnat; and a lecture about collaborations by Reinhold A. Bertlmann. Part two contains lectures concerning tests of Bell's inequality. There are lectures about discussions, history, or experimental technics by A. Shimony, J. Clauser, M. Horne, E. Fry and Th. Walther, A. Aspect, G. Weihs, and R. A. Bertlmann together with W. Grimms and B. C. Hiesmayr. Part III collects the lectures on quantum information: About quantum measurements by S. Stenholm; about quantum communication by N. Gisin, about Bell's theorem by A. Ekert; about quantum games by L. Vaidman; about photon entanglement by Jian-Wei Pan and A. Zeilinger; about information and quantum physics by A. Zeilinger. Part IV concerns general ideas on quantum theory. The contributions are by J. Conway and S. Kochen, N. D. Mermin, D. M. Greenberger; G. C. Ghirardi, G. 't Hooft. Part V about special topics contains lectures by R. Penrose on gravitationally induced state reduction; by M. Arndt together with O. Naiz and A. Zeilinger on interferometry with macromolecules; by H. Rauch on neutron interference experiments. To the final part VI, particles and fields, contributed R. Jackiw, R. Rajaraman, J. M. Leimaas, F. Selleri, and A. Zichichi. This book with essays written by these well known scientists gives a vivid overview on the impact of John Steward Bell on the present research in physics. It is very readable and of interest not only specialists but also philosophers and historians of science as well as anybody interested in the development of science.
