Abstract
One path by which disk galaxies evolve is via internal secular evolution. By breaking the symmetry of the system, bars play an important role in driving such evolution. I describe some recent results concerning aspects of this evolution relating to dark halos, disk density profiles, bulges and central nuclei.
