The two $B$-factories, Belle and BaBar, has been played major roles in the B decays study. Their wonderful design and excellent operation enables their fruitful analysis results. Also recently the Tevatron experiments, CDF and DO, join the…
I review the status of theoretical aspects of B-decays. The principal difficulty in interpreting the wealth of experimental data is the control of non-perturbative QCD effects, and the talk is focused on attempts to control these effects.…

Various exclusive and inclusive decays of B mesons are studied, at present, with dedicated experiments at ``B factories''. In order to compete with the experimental accuracy, we need a reliable theoretical framework to compute strong…
