A major progress in the understanding of nuclear dynamics in light-particle induced reactions was made with the development of the theories of pre-equilibrium phenomena which led to a unified and comprehensive description of the reaction mechanisms. Is this possible also in the case of heavy-ion reactions? This paper addresses this question and shows a few results which have been obtained in a comprehensive study of light-ion induced reactions.
