Abstract. Systematic redshift surveys of large numbers of
galaxies are producing an increasingly good
picture of galaxy evolution in the 0 < z < 1 redshift interval,
onto which the view of the deeper
Universe gained from the Hubble Deep Field may be grafted. The available
evidence is that
the largest and most massive galaxies were largely in place by z
~ 0.8. Although these larger
galaxies are evolving, most of the evolutionary changes seen in the
galactic population to this redshift involves smaller galaxies.
