Abstract
We review recent results on QCD at finite temperature. Main emphasis is put on a discussion of observables which are of immediate interest to experimental searches for the Quark Gluon Plasma, i.e. the phase transition temperature, the equation of state in 2 and 3-flavour QCD, the heavy quark free energy and thermal effects on hadron masses.
