This review concentrates on progress in lattice QCD during the last two years and, particularly, its impact on phenomenology. The two main technical developments have been successful implementations of lattice actions with exact chiral symmetry, and results from simulations with two light dynamical flavours which provide quantitative estimates of quenching effects for some quantities. Results are presented for the hadron spectrum, quark masses, heavy-quark decays and structure functions. Theoretical progress is encouraging renewed attempts to compute non-leptonic kaon decays. Although computing power continues to be a limitation, projects are underway to build multi-teraflops machines over the next three years, which will be around ten times more cost-effective than those of today.
