Starting finder window from Terminal

Okay, I'm on a roll today...

Does anyone know a way to launch a finder window from the terminal? For example, if I've navigated to a particular directory in Windows and want to view it in Explorer, I can simply type "start .", and it will pop up. I haven't been able to figure out a similar function in OS X...

Thanks again,
Rip
