Abstract
This is a survey of the diversity of problems in additive number theory. Equity requires the consideration of less currently popular problems, and suggests their inclusion in the additive canon. Of particular interest are problems about the sizes of sumsets of finite sets of integers and problems about the arithmetical structure of intersections of sumsets.
