"A survey of recent progress in research on neutron stars, emphasising radio pulsars, accreting neutron stars in X-ray binaries, and the rotation-powered high-energy emission from isolated neutron stars. Among the subjects reviewed are: the broad history of neutron star research; the properties of high-density matter in neutron stars; thermal and magnetic field evolution; dynamics of neutron star crusts and glitches; detection of radio emission from pulsars; radio pulsar population; millisecond and binary radio pulsars; gamma-ray emission from radio pulsars; accreting neutron stars (and black holes) in X-ray binaries; the recently discovered kHz oscillations in low-mass X-ray binaries; anomalous X-ray pulsars; the Bursting Pulsar; X-ray emission from isolated neutron stars; neutron star atmosphere; coalescing neutron star binaries; and gamma ray bursts."
