A review of basic papers related to development and implementation of rather efficient mathematical methods aimed at formation of Green's functions for various types of anisotropic media: uniaxial and biaxial, generalized gyrotropic, layered etc. is provided. Advantages and drawbacks of the methods aimed at both the analytical results and the possibility of numeric or asymptotic estimates of the sought functions are highlighted. The outlook for using them while solving practical problems of current importance are determined.
