This survey covers various topics related to affine diameters of convex bodies in Euclidean space. It describes the known properties of affine diameters and contains a list of existing and new open problems. Also, characterizations of simplices and centrally symmetric convex bodies, as well as a description of a measure of symmetry in terms of affine diameters, are given.
