Abstract
The status of the present precision measurements of electroweak observables is reviewed with specific reference to the radiative parametersS, T, U or equivalently ε1,ε2, ε3. The significance of the obliqueness hypothesis is underlined and the importance of the “local fit” method of extracting these parameters from the data is emphasized. Possible new physics implications are briefly touched upon.
