Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The J/[psi] suppression was originally proposed as a signature of the quark-gluon plasma. Strong suppression of J/[psi] production was indeed observed recently by the NA50 Collaboration at CERN SPS. Is it the first signature of a long-awaited quark-gluon matter, or just a peculiar combination of ''conventional'' effects acting together to produce the puzzling pattern observed experimentally? In this lecture, I am trying to summarize the existing theoretical explanations.
