  In this talk I will begin by summarising the importance of the Higgs physics
studies at the LHC. I will then give a short description of the pre-LHC
constraints on the Higgs mass and the theoretical predictions for the LHC along
with a discussion of the current experimental results, ending with prospects in
the near future at the LHC. In addition to the material covered in the
presented talk, I have included in the writeup, a critical appraisal of the
theoretical uncertainties in the Higgs cross-sections at the Tevatron as well
as a discussion of the recent experimental results from the LHC which have
become available since the time of the workshop.
