Acknowledgments

Thanks to my reviewers and their feedback, including Jeff Aikin, Steve Berczuk, Bob Hanmer, Neil Harrison, and Linda Rising. Thanks to Paul Becker, my editor, for his continual advice and directions as this project went on far longer than I would have believed. Thanks also to Jacquelyn Doucette, my production manager, and Bunny Ames, my copyeditor, for “Englishifying” this work and making it far more readable.

And most important, special thanks to my best friend, Susan, to whom I am lucky enough to be married, who spent many late nights reviewing my notes, fixing my spelling, and keeping me semisane as I completed this work.
