Abstract
This paper broadly reviews some of the fundamental results of research on a family of quasi-one-dimensional organic conductors called the Bechgaard salts. To a lesser extent, the quasi-two-dimensional salts will also be discussed. Apart from a selection of known results, drawn from the literature and the author's research experience, some open problems will also be presented.
