I thank my early mentors, Lafayette Noda and Lucille Smith, at Dartmouth; Barton Childs at Johns Hopkins; and Harvey Itano at the NIH. I thank colleagues who helped me in entering the mobile DNA field, especially Maxine Singer, Allan Scott, and Jef Boeke. I thank all the lab members, both those mentioned and those unmentioned, for their tireless efforts to contribute to the mobile DNA field. I thank other colleagues, John Moran, Nancy Craig, Vivian Cheung, and Eric Ostertag, for helpful comments and critiques of the book. I also thank Adam Ewing, Dustin Hancks, and Lauren Zeitel for their advice and comments.
