- Description:
- I review some aspects of recent studies of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their environments. My approach is from the hypothesis that a single AGN phenomenon includes the plethora of object classes whose acronyms pervade the literature. Particular attention is given to the mechanisms of interaction between the cetral engine and its environment, both with regard to the ways in which the observed radiation is produced on a range of spatial scales and to the ways in which the activity is related to outside influences.
