By definition giant H II complexes are luminous sources in the spectra of thermal photoionized interstellar gas. Therefore they are easily detected out to large distances. As a consequence the list of objects is vast and it is impossible to cover in detail all the results brought together by an increasing number of investigators. For more complete bibliography the reader is referred to the reference lists in the papers quoted. Let me line out here instead a number of aspects which have received considerable attention or which are still subject to major improvements.
