Abstract: In the first part of the paper we study the structure of Banach spaces with a conditional spreading basis. The geometry of such spaces exhibit a striking resemblance to the geometry of James' space. Further, we show that the averaging projections onto subspaces spanned by constant coefficient blocks with no gaps between supports are bounded. As a consequence, every Banach space with a spreading basis contains a complemented subspace with an unconditional basis. This gives an affirmative answer to a question of H. Rosenthal. The second part contains two results on Banach spaces

X

whose asymptotic structures are closely related to

c_{0}

and do not contain a copy of

e l l_{1}

: i) Suppose

X

has a normalized weakly null basis

(x_{i})

and every spreading model

(e_{i})

of a normalized weakly null block basis satisfies

| e_{1} - e_{2} | = 1

. Then some subsequence of

(x_{i})

is equivalent to the unit vector basis of

c_{0}

. This generalizes a similar theorem of Odell and Schlumprecht, and yields a new proof of the Elton-Odell theorem on the existence of infinite

(1 + v a r e p s i l o n)

-separated sequences in the unit sphere of an arbitrary infinite dimensional Banach space. ii) Suppose that all asymptotic models of

X

generated by weakly null arrays are equivalent to the unit vector basis of

c_{0}

. Then

X^{*}

is separable and

X

is asymptotic-

c_{0}

with respect to a shrinking basis

(y_{i})

of

Y s u p s e t e q X

.
