This chapter reviews the available knowledge of the bulk magnetic and transport properties of the rare earth metals with a particular emphasis on the ways in which these macroscopic properties may be interpreted to improve our understanding of the fundamental microscopic interactions. The review comprises five basic components in section 2 we discuss the magnetization and susceptibility of these metals followed by their magnetic anisotropy in section 3 and magnetostriction in section 4. Section 5 considers the electrical resistivity, whilst section 6 deals with magnetoresistance and the Hall effect.
