  At the present time, there are a number of measurements of $B$-decay
observables that disagree with the predictions of the standard model. These
discrepancies have been seen in processes governed by two types of decay: (i)
$b \to s \mu^+ \mu^-u$ and (ii) $b \to c \tau^- {\bar\nu}$. In this talk, I
review the experimental results, as well as the proposed new-physics
explanations. We may be seeing the first signs of physics beyond the standard
model.
