The historical background and some of the highlights of more recent developments in the theory of phase equilibria and their critical points are described. The historical mean-field theoriestheir strengths and certain of their deficienciesare emphasized, as well as some of their recent applications to complex systems such as polymer solutions, microemulsions, multicomponent solutions and their tricritical points, and the interfaces between phases.
