Shock waves light up the jets, winds and outflows around YSOs and diagnose the physical conditions and processes resident in these regions. This paper discusses the differences between the jet/wind shock and the ambient shock, between C shocks and J shocks, and between the shocks produced by pure jets and by collimated wide angle winds. Basic shock physics is briefly reviewed, with a special focus on the temperature structure in shocks and the Wardle instability of C shocks. Application is made to the origin of shocked H2 emission and to H2O masers.
