Description
I will review our understanding of the AGN as detected by the current suite of X-ray observatories. I will discuss the complementary parameter space from the broad swathe of extragalactic X-ray surveys undertaken to date. I will describe the types of AGN detected in these surveys, their overall properties and cosmic evolution. A key objective of this talk is to provide the context for many of the other talks in this session.
