The editors wish to thank all the scientific, engineering and technical personnel, the students and early stage researchers and all members of personnel involved in the investigations, designs and prototyping for their invaluable contributions that made this work possible. We also want to express our thanks to the administration officers who prepared the ground and created a framework in which this work could be carried out efficiently. The FCC study management team thanks in particular John Poole for his enthusiastic dedication during the editing phase, contributing significantly to deliver a coherent, consistent and readable set of report volumes. Finally, we wish to thank the CERN management for their strong support and encouragement. The research, which led to this publication has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Grant numbers 654305 (EuroCirCol), 764879 (EASITrain), 730871 (ARIES), 777563 (RI-Paths) and from FP7 under grant number 312453 (EuCARD-2). The information herein only reflects the views of its authors. The European Commission is not responsible for any use that may be made of the information ; We review the physics opportunities of the Future Circular Collider, covering its e(+)e(-), pp, ep and heavy ion programmes. We describe the measurement capabilities of each FCC component, addressing the study of electroweak, Higgs and strong interactions, the top quark and flavour, as well as phenomena beyond the Standard Model. We highlight the synergy and complementarity of the different colliders, which will contribute to a uniquely coherent and ambitious research programme, providing an unmatchable combination of precision and sensitivity to new physics. ; Publisher's Version
