    As a survey paper on totally positive matrices, this article enhances the earlier work of Gantmacher and Krein, and Karlin. There are seven short sections, each complete with definitions, theorems, proofs and references on: determinantal identities in light of tensor products and Schur complements; criteria for total positivity using sign-regularity; permanence of total positivity involving products and factorisations of totally positive matrices; oscillatory matrices; variation of signs; eigenvalues and eigenvectors and examples of totally positive matrices such as Hurwitz and certain Toeplitz matrices.
