Acknowledgments

I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought, and that gratitude
is happiness doubled by wonder.

G. K. Chesterton

This book was a team effort and it is something of an injustice that only one name appears on the cover. I am hugely grateful for all the people who used their time, skills, and creativity to bring it together.

Thanks to Tony Lyons for entrusting me with another exciting and challenging project, and for all his support along the way, and to Ann Treistman for her encouragement, ideas, and editorial guidance. Julie Matysik, this book wouldnt have gotten done if it werent for the hours and hours you spent researching, compiling information, organizing, and writingthank you. Bill Wolfsthal, Kathleen Go, and Adam BozarthI continue to be grateful for your marketing, editing, and designing skills, and for helping to make this work we do so fulfilling. Jessie Shiers, thanks for your close copyeditors eye and useful comments. Thanks also to Janike Ruginis, Heather Chapman, Loren Yandoc, Erika Meller, and Matt Messmer for your willingness to jump in and help at any moment. To the many people who offered their thoughts, experiences, and expertise, I am truly grateful.

Finally, thanks to my family for being supportive even as I spent portions of so many evenings, weekends, and holidays with my eyes glued to the computer screen. Tim Lawrence, I am more and more amazed by your many talents. Thank you for not only encouraging me but for willingly doing so many excellent drawings to illustrate the words in these pages. We make a good team.
