Lattice Gauge Theory -- Present Status

Abstract

Lattice gauge theory is our primary tool for the study of non-perturbative phenomena in hadronic physics. In addition to giving quantitative information on confinement, the approach is yielding first principles calculations of hadronic spectra and matrix elements. After years of confusion, there has been significant recent progress in understanding issues of chiral symmetry on the lattice. (Talk presented at HADRON 93, Como, Italy, June 1993.)
