This volume contains the invited lectures given at the Twelfth British Combinatorical Conference. The lectures survey the many areas of current research activity in combinatorics and its applications, including graph theory, designs, and probabilistic graphs. This book provides a valuable survey of the present status of knowledge in combinatorics for mathematicians, computer scientists and engineers.
