The Editors are greatly indebted to all the participants of the Workshop held in ISSI Bern on 15 to 19 April 2013 who brought their broad range of expertise and interest in the astrophysics of plasmas to discuss the vast range of scales of plasma structures in the Universe and how the study of their formation and dynamics can illuminate processes at the different scales. We thank the staff of ISSI for their dedicated support: Prof. Rafael Rodrigo, Executive Director, and his colleagues Prof. Rudolf von Steiger, Jennifer Fankhauser, Andrea Fischer, Saliba Saliba and Sylvia Wenger. The resulting collection of review papers was the outcome of the exchanges and fruitful collaboration among the participants; we thank them for their successful efforts to integrate the lessons learned in the different topics, as the reviews in the volume testify. Thanks are also due to the reviewers of the papers; in all cases the reviews were thorough and constructive and the volume bears witness to their contribution. Finally the Editors thank the staff of Space Science Reviews, as well as the production staff for their patience on occasion and for an excellently produced volume.
