The general theory of charged-particle transport and acceleration is reviewed and application to the heliosphere discussed in detail. The present status of understanding is briefly surveyed, with emphasis on large-scale processes. Opportunities for increasing understanding through the confrontation of theory, modeling and observations are outlined. It is concluded that the largest advances in this understanding in the next few years will come from coordinated theoretical and observations studies of large-scale phenomena requiring energetic-particle, magnetic-field, and plasma data from several spacecraft. Fundamental studies of the interactions between cosmic rays and turbulent plasma to study transport coefficients, details of interactions with shocks, etc, are also important in the longer term.
