The Weyl algebra \(A_n\), \(n=1,2,\dots,\infty\), is the unital associative algebra over a field, \(\mathbb{K}\), generated by \(x_i,\partial_i\), \(i=1,\dots,n\), subject to the relations \([x_i,x_j]=[\partial_i,\partial_j]=0\) and \([\partial_i,x_j]=\delta_{i,j}1\) for all \(i,j\). A weight \(A_n\)-module is a module on which the action of \(\partial_i x_i\) is diagonalizable for all \(i\). In the paper under review the authors study weight \(A_n\)-modules, \(n=1,2,\dots,\infty\), where \(\mathbb{K}\) is any field. A precise description of all simple weight \(A_n\)-modules for \(n<\infty\) is given. The cases \(n=1,2\) are considered very detailed. In the case \(n=\infty\) a large class of simple weight modules is constructed. Using the latter class the authors construct a family of simple modules over the Heisenberg algebra, which have non-zero central charge and infinite-dimensional weight spaces. Finally, the representation type of the blocks of the category of locally-finite weight \(A_n\)-modules, \(n=1,2,\dots,\infty\), is determined, and all indecomposable modules in the tame blocks are constructed.
