"The Clustering of Quasars from z=0 to z=6"
 

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has now discovered over 100,000 quasars in a broad range of redshifts.  I will discuss their clustering properties on large and small scales, at low redshift and high as a clue to their physical nature, and as a test of models in which quasar activity is triggered by the merger of massive galaxies.
