Review text

This is a rather comprehensive introduction to the book ``Duality and supersymmetric theories CUP, Cambridge, 1999, based on the lectures delivered during a six-month programme which took place at the Newton Institute. Some of the diverse lines of thought and their historical development are described in detail. The sections telling their own tales are 1) Development of the Standard Model; 2) String Theory and its First Incarnation; 3) Supersymmetry; 4) The Resurgence of String Theory; 5) Solitons, Topology and the Index Theorem. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0919.00030].
