Dear Reader,

Thanks to T. Pang’s efforts to locate a copy of the collection of abstracts of the 29th Meeting of the PIAC in Tashkent, USSR, 1986, the table of contents of this collection is now available.

Neither Proceedings nor an official report of this meeting were ever formally published. However, one of the three participants from China, Chen Wei, wrote a brief introduction to this meeting which was published in a journal on Mongolian studies in 1987.

Oliver Corff.
