Abstract
Lattice gauge theory is our primary tool for the study of non-perturba tive phenomena in hadronic physics. In addition to giving quantitative information on confinement, the approach is yielding first-principles calculations of hadronic spectra and matrix elements. After years of confusion, there has been significant recent progress in understanding issues of chiral symmetry on the lattice.
