A commodity (chips\, sand\, dollars) is exchanged between sites of a network according to simple local rules. Although governed by local rules\, the long-term global behavior of the system reveals unexpected properties\, including intricate fractal-like patterns. In this talk\, I will give a broad survey of the theory of chip-firing\, highlighting both classical results and recent advances.
