Abstract
Lasers with ever increasing high powers, CW as well as pulsed, have been targets for research and developments from the very invention of the laser. Availability of high powers facilitate many practical applications in industry, medicine and research in quantum electronics. This presentation will summarize some of the key advances that have occurred since early 1960's and provide a guide for what can be expected in the future.
