Abstract
I discuss some puzzles observed in exclusive B-meson decays, concentrating on the large difference between the direct CP asymmetries in the B 0 → π− K = and B ± → π0 K ± modes, the large B 0 → π0π0 branching ratio, and the large deviation of the mixing-induced CP asymmetries in the b → sqq penguins from those in the b → ccs trees.
