ABSTRACT: The asymmetric B-factories have performed impressively and provided a valuable test of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa paradigm of CP violation. Compelling arguements though suggest that additional CP-odd phase(s) must exist due to physics beyond the Standard Model. More precise tests for this crucial search are therefore extremely desirable and require a Super-B Factory. Such a machine would yield clean and very accurate determination of all three angles of the unitarity triangle and also enable stringent searches for CP asymmetries in a host of modes where the SM predicts negligble effects. Thereby it should provide a wealth of information on issues that are as fundamental to Particle Physics as the origin of matter in our universe. For these reasons it would be a serious mistake if the remarkable success of the current B-factories is not vigorously followed up by the construction of a Super-B Factroy.
