This review examines the renormalizability of various theories of vector fields. A discussion is given of how renormalizable theories in which the mass of a vector field arises from spontaneous symmetry breaking are used to construct models of the weak, electromagnetic, and strong interactions. Certain specific schemes and the experimental bounds on the parameters of these schemes are analyzed.
