The author reconstructs session types, i.e., types for processes that interact according to a protocol, as a type system for a linear pi calculus. Readability of the paper is improved by introducing concepts gradually. The presentation is reasonably self-contained, but, as the paper has few motivating examples, some prior familiarity with pi calculus is an advantage.
