Acknowledgments

M Y EDITOR at Norton, Starling Lawrence, first suggested this project and has kept it on the rails with expert advice, ongoing encouragement, and the occasional exhortation to come down off the ledge and get back to the manuscript. I continue to be grateful to both Star and Jenny for providing me with a place to work and think whenever I show up in New York.
