+    (description "Static dispatch is a Common Lisp library, inspired by
+@code{inlined-generic-function}, which allows standard Common Lisp generic
+function dispatch to be performed statically (at compile time) rather than
+dynamically (runtime).  This is similar to what is known as \"overloading\" in
+languages such as C++ and Java.
+
+The purpose of static dispatch is to provide an optimization in cases where
+the usual dynamic dispatch is too slow, and the dynamic features of generic
+functions, such as adding/removing methods at runtime are not required.  An
+example of such a case is a generic equality comparison function.  Currently
+generic functions are considered far too slow to implement generic arithmetic
+and comparison operations when used heavily in numeric code.")
