摘要
A synthesis of the present knowledge on Gamma-ray blazars is presented, focusing on the best studied "protoypical" objects. Basic results and concepts are introduced following a historical path. Multifrequency correlations and spectral variability are discussed as probes of our understanding of physical processes in the emission regions of relativistic jets. Finally an overall scheme for unification of GeV and TeV blazars is described.
