``Calabi-Yau Manifolds: a Bestiary for Physicists'' by Tristan Hubsch in 1992
was a classic that served to introduce algebraic geometry to physicists when
the first string theory revolution of 1984 - 94 brought, inter alia, the
subject of Calabi-Yau manifolds to the staple of high-energy theorists. We are
fortunate that a substantially expanded and updated new edition of the Bestiary
will shortly appear. This brief note will serve as an afterword to the much
anticipated volume.
