Chau, L

The present status of our knowledge on quark mixing and its phenomenologicl implications are reviewed. Especially, the implications of the recent measurements of the b lifetime and the ratio GAMMA/sub b/+u/GAMMA/sub b/+c on the Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, CP violation in the K system epsilon, epsilon'/epsilon, t-quark masses m/sub t/, and the CP violating effects in charm and beauty particle decays are discussed.
