This paper, written by Yu. G. Reshetnyak (1929--2021) and translated from Russian by F. Fillastre and D. Slutskiy, serves as a kind of introduction to the book [\textit{F. Fillastre} (ed.) and \textit{D. Slutskiy} (ed.), Reshetnyak's theory of subharmonic metrics. Cham: Springer (2023; Zbl 1530.53006)]. It gives some historical and personal reminiscences on the foundational work of A. D. Alexandrov regarding surfaces of bounded curvature and how the author was led to introduce isothermal coordinates for them.\N\NThe book itself contains translations of Reshetnyak's eight most influential articles on the subject, which at the time had appeared only in Russian:\N\begin{itemize}\N\item Изотермические координаты в многообразиях ограниченной кривизны [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR, n. Ser. 94, 631--633 (1954; Zbl 0058.38402)]\N\N\item Исследование многообразий ограниченной кривизны посредством изотермических координат [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Izv. Sib. Otd. Akad. Nauk SSSR 1959, No. 10, 15--28 (1959; Zbl 0115.16401)]\N\N\item Изотермические координаты в многообразиях ограниченной кривизны. I [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Sib. Mat. Zh. 1, 88--116, 248--276 (1960; Zbl 0108.33806)]\N\N\item Изотермические координаты в многообразиях ограниченной кривизны. II [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Sib. Mat. Zh. 1, 88--116, 248--276 (1960; Zbl 0108.33806)]\N\N\item Об изопериметрическом свойстве двумерных многообразий кривизны, не большей [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Vestn. Leningr. Univ., Mat. Mekh. Astron. 16, No. 4, 58--76 (1961; Zbl 0106.36501)]\N\N\item Об одном специальном отображении конуса на многогранник [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Mat. Sb., Nov. Ser. 53(95), 39--52 (1961; Zbl 0124.15203)]\N\N\item Об одном специальном отображении конуса в многообразие ограниченной кривизны [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Sib. Mat. Zh. 3, 256--272 (1962; Zbl 0124.15301)]\N\N\item Длина кривой в многообразии ограниченной кривизны с изотермическим линейным элементом [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Sib. Mat. Zh. 4, 212--226 (1963; Zbl 0128.15904)]\N\N\item Поворот кривой в многообразии ограниченной кривизны с изотермическим линейным элементом [\textit{Yu. G. Reshetnyak}, Sib. Mat. Zh. 4, 870--911 (1963; Zbl 0145.19301)]\N\end{itemize}\NMoreover, it contains a translation from German of a paper which at the time had extended the work of Reshetnyak:\N\begin{itemize}\N\item Zum potentialtheoretischen Aspekt der Alexandrowschen Flächentheorie [\textit{A. Huber}, Comment. Math. Helv. 34, 99--126 (1960; Zbl 0105.16104)]\N\end{itemize}\Nand translations from French of two more recent articles:\N\begin{itemize}\N\item Surfaces riemanniennes à singularités simples [\textit{M. Troyanov}, Proc. Symp. Pure Math. 54, 619--628 (1993; Zbl 0806.53042)]\N\N\item Les surfaces à courbure intégrale bornée au sens d'Alexandrov [\textit{M. Troyanov}, SMF Journ. Annu. 2009, 3--20 (2009; Zbl 1221.53101)]\N\end{itemize}\N\NA modern introduction to Reshetnyak's theory of subharmonic distances is provided in the chapter by [\textit{F. Fillastre}, in: Reshetnyak's theory of subharmonic metrics. Cham: Springer. 47--145 (2023; Zbl 1548.30118)].\N\NFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1530.53006].
