Following up on the plenary talk given by Ulf Mei{\ss}ner, I discuss a
generalization of the concept of nucleon spin-polarizabilities in terms of
multipole excitation/de-excitation and present an overview of the available
theoretical predictions for these elusive but interesting structure parameters
of the nucleon.Comment: 4 pages, uses World Scientific style ws-p8-50x6-00.cls; talk given at
