Abstract
Experimental results on beauty production at HERA are reviewed in the context of similar measurements at other colliders. As a result of a phenomenological study of the QCD scale dependence of many different NLO and NNLO predictions, a modification of the ``default'' scale choice is advocated. Experimental constraints on the photon-quark coupling are also investigated.
