Abstract
The evidence for universality of critical behavior is reviewed from a series expansion viewpoint. The necessity of incorporating non-analytic corrections to dominant scaling-theory singularities is pointed out, and the outlook for the verification of hyperscaling is discussed.

Even traditional Euler transform techniques fail to improve matters on the bcc and sc lattices—see Camp and VanDyke, Ref. 12.
M. E. Fisher in Nobel 24 (1973) Collective Properties of Physical Systems has suggested several ways in which hyperscaling may be violated in a generalized scaling theory.
However, it should be noted that the accuracy with which discrepancies in hyperscaling have been found is comparable to that in the determination of η. [The point is that sometimes the intuition an investigator develops about a problem is more trustworthy than his numerical estimates would seem to justify.]
