Recent results on the star formation histories of nearby spiral galaxies do not conform to the classical view of how such systems evolve. Bulges have a range of light-weighted ages and are probably strongly influenced by the inner disks. Disks probably do not have a smoothly monotonic, exponential star forming history but do show a remarkable degree of regulation over time scales with a ratio of 1000:1. UV observations are especially valuable in probing dynamical control of star formation in disks on time scales of 50-500 Myr.
