The substantial progress that has occurred during the 1990s in the field of electron-atom collision theory is discussed. We show how a solution of a small model three body problem using the convergent close coupling method has led to numerous applications involving real atomic collision systems. Consequently many fundamental electron-atom collision processes are considered as solved and accurate collision data of interest to science and industry have become available. However we suggest that the present has only just seen the birth of modem atomic collision theory. There are many more important collision problems to be tackled with guidance coming from experiment being as important as ever.
