In view of the present accuracy of the astrometric observations and of the development of the theory of the nutation, it became necessary to make a complete revision of this theory for a rigid Earth model. We present the results of our recent one (Kinoshita and Souchay, 1989), which includes planetary effects and second order effects no considered in the previous tables (Kinoshita, 1977). We analyze the difference between these tables and the new ones providing from the revision above and the comparison between the theory and numerical integrations recently performed (Kubo and Fukushima, 1987; Shastok et al., 1987; Shastok et al., 1989). The results of this comparison are much better after revision than before.
