This short paper discusses various issues pertaining to the redistribution of angular momentum and mixing of chemical species in the radiative interior of solar-type stars. Results obtained to date indicate that models combining magnetically-mediated angular momentum transport with turbulent mixing of chemical species offer the best hope of explaining the observed rotation and light element evolution in open clusters, without doing excess violence to seismic measurements of the solar internal differential rotation.
