Abstract
In this review we concentrate on the work of K. Alex M\"uller in connection with his activities on oxide perovskites and ferroelectrics which were central to his research career long before he successfully discovered the first high temperature superconductor (HTSC) together with J. G. Bednorz in 1986. Not accidentally, but taking his long experience in perovskite ferroelectrics into account, the first HTSC was an oxide perovskite which had never been considered before to be superconducting.
