Abstract

I present an overview of strong and weak gravitational lensing by galaxy clusters. After briefly introducing the principles of gravitational lensing, I discuss the main lessons learned from lensing on the mass distribution in clusters and their relation to cosmology.<br />Invited Review at "Matter and Energy in Clusters of Galaxies", Taipei 2002 (7 pages, no figures)
