Branching fractions and direct CP violation in B -> PP(PV) decays
  I present the results of searches for B meson decays into two charmless mesons. I take into account final states made up of two pseudo-scalar (PP) or one pseudo-scalar and one vector (PV). The measurements use the data samples collected and analysed by the B-factory experiments at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance energy: BABAR, Belle and CLEO.
