Scientific paper

The authors present an observational and theoretical review of the winds of cataclysmic variables (CV's). Specifically, they consider the related problems of the geometry and mass-loss rate of the winds of CV's, their ionization state and variability, and the results from studies of eclipsing CV's. Finally, they consider the properties of accretion disk wind models. Some of these models predict substantial angular momentum loss, which could affect both disk structure and binary evolution.
