AB  - This is an updated version of a paper by the author which originally appeared in 1997. The original paper was a survey of the closely related fields of taut and Dupin submanifolds of Euclidean space, and this updated version includes many results in the field that have appeared since the publication of the original version. The emphasis is on stating results in their proper context and noting areas for future research, and relatively few proofs are given. The important class of isoparametric hypersurfaces is surveyed in detail, as is the relationship between the two concepts of taut and Dupin. Also included is a brief introduction to submanifold theory in Lie sphere geometry which is needed to state many known results on Dupin submanifolds accurately. The paper concludes with detailed descriptions of the main known classification results for both Dupin and taut submanifolds.
