Recent discoveries have shown that magnetic activity is typical of cool stars with deep convective zones and magnetic cycles are found in slowly rotating stars like the sun. The current state of hydromagnetic dynamo theory is reviewed, and simplified models are used in an attempt to isolate the dominant nonlinear processes in stellar dynamos.
