Scientific paper

We review the present status of black hole thermodynamics. Our review
includes discussion of classical black hole thermodynamics, Hawking radiation
from black holes, the generalized second law, and the issue of entropy bounds.
A brief survey also is given of approaches to the calculation of black hole
entropy. We conclude with a discussion of some unresolved open issues.
