This is an exhaustive review of our theoretical and observational
knowledge of gravitational lensing 10 years after the discovery of
the first lensed quasar, Q0957+561. Gravitational optics, optical,
infrared, and radio observations of quasar-lens candidates,
microlensing, arcs in clusters of galaxies, and radio rings are
presented. In particular, the continuing survey of quasar-lens
candidates, the new measurement of the time delay in 0957+561, the
suspended microlensing effect through the galaxy 2237+030, as well
as the discovery of new arcs and the measurement of new redshifts
for two of them are presented. Numerous papers on the modelling of
arcs and rings show how it should be possible to probe dark matter
with these unexpected gravitational telescopes. Finally, tables
summarize all the lens candidates we know today.
