Description
Updated formulations of the soft Pomeron, in which $s$ and $t$ channel unitarity screenings are included, are reviewed.
The consequent soft total, elastic, diffractive and inclusive cross sections are explored.
Calculations of the gap survival probability, which is critical to hard diffractive processes, are presented.
The interplay between theory and and data analysis is discussed.
A critical assessment of predictions and simulations based on ISR-Tevatron data concludes this presentation.
