Over this decade we have learned or should have learned the importance of
patience, humility, and diversity of ideas. Not the type of lessons that theoretical
physicists appreciate too much.

We mention here only text books and reviews and only those which were used to
prepare this entry. Most of the appropriate references for the works reviewed here
can be found in them.
(1) For Super Symmetry:
Different narratives on the history of Super Symmetry by a large number of
its pioneers has been collected in the book The Supersymmetric World, edited
by G. Kane and M. Shifman. Published by World Scientific (2000). As most
of them were still alive at the time this offers a unique perspective into how
theoretical ideas develop.
