Measurement of circular polarization is mostly looked upon as a specialist craft, applied by polarization freaks to answer uninteresting questions. This paper attempts to correct that view: some important questions can only be tackled by circular polarimetry, there is nothing very special about Stokes V and its measurement is entirely analogous to that of Q and U. Radio and optical polarimetry are covered, using both single telescopes and interferometers.
