Abstract
The article deals with the present-day status of the problem of damage to transparent solid dielectrics such as crystals, glasses, and others. The role of the absorbing inclusions and of self-focusing in the laser damage mechanism is discussed, as are also the limiting mechanisms connected with the electron avalanche.
