Acknowledgments

I want to thank Shelley Johnston and Heather Goodell for gently cracking the whip and keeping me almost on schedule for this book.

Thanks to Chris Van Buren for being such a wonderful agent and always keeping me busy.

I'd like to thank my friends and family: my parents for always being supportive in every aspect of my life, Travis and Sarah Foster for the late-night tennis matches, Keith Nash and Josh Timm for forcing me to learn how to play hockey on my own, and Randy Weems, my all-purpose technical resource.

Finally, I'd like to thank Mahsheed for simply being the most caring, generous, and loving person I've ever met. My life is truly a joy with you in it.
