Scientific paper

This article reviews classical and quantum aspects of critical phenomena in
gravitational collapse. We pay special attention to the origin of the scaling
law for black hole mass, and to phase transitions in which black hole formation
turns on at finite mass. We present some new results for perfect fluids with
pressure proportional to density.
