We review a current state of cooling theory of isolated neutron stars. The main regulators of neutron star cooling are discussed. We outline the sensitivity of cooling models to equation of state of matter in the neutron star core; the presence or absence of enhanced neutrino emission; superfluidity of baryonic component of matter. A comparison of the cooling theory with observations of thermal emission of isolated neutron stars gives a potentially powerful method to study fundamental
