The discovery in 1982, by the EMC group, that the structure function F{sub 2}(x) per nucleon is different in iron than deuterium was the first evidence that the structure of the nucleon might be altered in nuclei. Much more extensive and precise and data have been taken since the original discovery. This body of data is now quite consistent and many of the features of the original EMC effect'' remain intact. There have been a variety of theoretical explanations of the data, but none are totally compelling. The deep-inelastic-scattering (DIS) data for the ratio of F{sub 2}{sup Fe}(x) in iron to F{sub 2}{sup D}(x) in deuterium are given for the region 0.03 {le} {times} {le} {approximately} 1.0.
