Abstract: 
L-functions have two crucial analytic properties: meromorphic continuation and functional equations. One of the practical approaches to establishing these properties is finding integral representations of L-functions. The Rankin-Selberg method, which utilizes the Eisenstein series, provides a vast range of integral representations of L-functions. I will survey the Rankin-Selberg method and its recent advancements in this talk.
