Abstract
The appearance of Marshall and Olkin's 1979 book on inequalities with special emphasis on majorization generated a surge of interest in potential applications of majorization and Schur convexity in a broad spectrum of fields. After 25 years this continues to be the case. The present article presents a sampling of the diverse areas in which majorization has been found to be useful in the past 25 years.
