AbstractThis is part I of a two-part review of charm physics. After briefly recapitulating the history of the charm quantum number we sketch the experimental environments and instruments employed to study the behaviour of charm hadrons and then describe the theoretical tools for treating charm dynamics. After discussing a wide range of inclusive production processes we analyze the spectroscopy of hadrons with hidden and open charm and the weak lifetimes of charm mesons and baryons. In part II we shall address exclusive charm decays, $D^0 - ar D^0$ oscillations and CP violation. This review is meant to be both a pedagogical introduction for the young scholar and a useful reference for the experienced researcher. We aim for a complete description of the fundamental features while providing a guide through the literature for purely technical issues.
