Abstract
Cohomology and deformation theories are developed for Poisson algebras starting with the more general concept of a Leibniz pair, namely of an associative algebraA together with a Lie algebraL mapped into the derivations ofA. A bicomplex (with both Hochschild and Chevalley-Eilenberg cohomologies) is essential.
