(Half) a Lecture on D-branes

Abstract

This is a concise foreword to, rather than a review of D-brane physics.

20 pages, Latex. To appear in Proceedings of the Workshop on Gauge Theories, Applied Supersymmetry and Quantum Gravity (Imperial College, London, July 1996). Two misprints in eqs. (3.24) and (3.25) corrected
