"It would not be an exaggeration to say that today supersymmetry dominates theoretical high energy physics. Many believe it will play the same revolutionary role in the physics of the 21st as special and general relativity did in the physics of the 20th century. This belief is based on aesthetical appeal, on indirect evidence, and the fact that no theoretical alternative is in sight."
