These proceedings represent papers presented at the Workshop on the muon collider held in 1997 at Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA, and sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy. The goal of the Workshop was to explore the physics potential of the various options for the First Muon Collider including the physics at the ldquofront{minus}endrdquo of the collider. The Workshop brought together people with a wide variety of interests ranging from atomic physics to Higgs and SUSY physics at the First Muon Collider energy frontier. The Workshop addressed accelerator issues associated with the high intensity proton driver needed to produce the muons. The physics of experiments using muons, neutrino, and hadron beams was also discussed. The possibility of discovering neutral Higgs boson and the opportunity to study the s channel production of Higgs particles was discussed as well. The small beam energy spread in muon collider can be an advantage in measuring the mass of the W boson and also in exploring the threshold of top quark production. There were 87 papers presented at the meeting and out of these 55 have been abstracted for the Energy, Science and Technology database.(AIP)
