Description
We review recent advances in our understanding of massive stars through
the analysis of their spectra. Improvements in model atmospheres and
analysis methods are briefly discussed. Results obtained for stars in
the Local Group are compared and the present status of different open
questions, like the temperature scale of OB stars, the Wind
Momentum-Luminosity Relation or the stellar rotation, is outlined.
