Abstract: A qualitative overview of the strongly correlated problem is given with emphasis on the electrical resistivity. This is one of the important unsolved problems in condensed matter physics. The recently advanced Extremely Correlated Fermi Liquid (ECFL) theory has yielded encouraging results, which will be reviewed. The talk is specially geared at non-specialists and the technical details are avoided as far as possible.
