 @section Garbage Collection
+@cindex Garbage collection
 
 SBCL provides additional garbage collection functionality not
-specified by ANSI. Weak pointers allow references to objects to be
-maintained without keeping them from being garbage collected, and
-``finalization'' hooks are available to cause code to be executed when
-an object has been garbage collected. Additionally users can specify
-their own cleanup actions to be executed with garbage collection. See
-also @code{make-hash-table} for information on weak hash tables.

+@cindex Finalization
+
+Finalization allows code to be executed after an object has been
+garbage collected. This is useful for example for releasing foreign
+memory associated with a Lisp object.

+
+Weak pointers allow references to objects to be maintained without
+keeping them from being garbage collected: useful for building caches
+among other things.
+
+Hash tables can also have weak keys and values: @pxref{Hash Table
