Abstract
This paper gives an overview over the connection method in Automated Theorem Proving, developed earlier by the author. Its prominent features are illustrated with a number of examples. These features provide it with provable advantages over any standard proof method. Some of them also have been obtained by Andrews in an independent approach using matings. The relationship between these two methods is clarified.
