The most significant results on the spectroscopy, production and decay of charmonium and charmonium-like states are reviewed. The surprise-filled physics of charmonium is currently attracting a lot of experimental and theoretical attention. Unexpected properties exhibited by numerous discovered states fail to be explained by current theory which claims instead the existence in the spectra of charmonium-like particles of exotic systems different from usual bound states.
