This is a survey of some recent developments in the theory of elliptic curves. After an informal discussion of the main theorems of the arithmetic side of the theory and the open problems confronting the subject, we describe the recent work of K. Rubin, V. Koly vagin, K. Murty and the author which establishes the finiteness of the Shafarevic-Tate group for modular elliptic curves of rank zero and one.
