This review covers the recent advances in studies of the volume phase transition and critical phenomena of polymer gels mostly carried out in our group from 1973 to the present. We aimed here to discuss intensively (i) the basic understanding of the transition from the viewpoints of structure, dynamics, kinetics, and equilibrium thermodynamics, (ii) technological applications of the volume transition, and (iii) the relation between the phase transition and biological interactions.
