Description
We review the use of peculiar velocities of galaxies as a probe of cosmological models. We put particular emphasis on comparison of the peculiar velocity and density fields, focussing on the discrepancies between various recent analyses. We discuss the limitations of the commonly used linear bias model, which may lie at the heart of some of the current controversies in the field.
