The march towards no-scale supergravity

The different steps that led us to the discovery of {\em no-scale supergravity} are discussed from a very personal point of view. No-scale supergravity has been heralded as the most promising effective theory that describes physics below the Planck scale. In its string-derived form it holds the potential for a Dynamical Determination Of Everything (DDOE).
