    Description
    We will review for the phi/theta audience the holographic correspondence between field theories and supergravity (string) theory. We will describe the main results that have been derived from the correspondence in the regime that the field theory is approximated by classical or semiclassical gravity, and discuss in particular the relation to QCD. We will assume no previous knowldege of the subject.
