Abstract
Progress in the Effective Field Theory of two and three nucleon systems is sketched, concentrating mainly on the low energy version in which pions are integrated out as explicit degrees of freedom. Examples given are: the extraction of nucleon polarisabilities from deuteron Compton scattering at very low energies; the energy dependence of the nucleon polarisabilities; three body forces and the triton; and partial waves at momenta below the pion cut.
