Abstract: This is a brief review of some of the uses of nonlinear sigma models. After a short general discussion touching on point particles, strings and condensed matter systems, focus is shifted to sigma models as probes of target space geometries. The relation of supersymmetric non-linear sigma models to K"ahler, hyperk"ahler, hyperk"ahler with torsion and generalised K"ahler geometries is described.
