Superspace or One Thousand and One Lessons in Supersymmetryby W. Siegel, at al. - arXiv
Supersymmetry is the supreme symmetry: It unifies spacetime symmetries with internal symmetries, fermions with bosons, and (local supersymmetry) gravity with matter. Under quite general assumptions it is the largest possible symmetry of the S-matrix.
