Abstract

Some historical remarks concerning the strange stars are briefly discussed. The recent developments in physics and dynamical behavior of strange stars are reviewed. Especially, various observational effects in distinguishing strange stars from neutron stars and related interesting astrophysical phenomena are also discussed.
