I would like to thank my mother and father for always believing in me and supporting me. I wouldn't have been able to complete this without them. I would also like to thank my family and friends for providing encouragement throughout the process of writing this book. Finally, I would like to thank Carrie Arnold and Shay Levy for providing additional editorial guidance during the authoring of this book. Their help ensured that the quality of the book was far beyond what I could do alone.

My thanks should go to my wife Emily, for her endless patience in the face of incessant clattering from my keyboard in the evenings.
Shay Levy is a Systems Engineer working for a government institute in Israel. He has over 20 years of experience, focusing on Microsoft server platforms, especially on Exchange and Active Directory.

As a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) he has taught numerous courses at John Bryce training center, Israel's largest computer training center. He is the Co-Founder and Editor of the PowerShellMagazine.com website and a Co-Director of the PowerShellCommunity.org website.

Not unlike many programmers David Karapetyan stumbled into programming while trying to attain a graduate degree in a related technical field. In his case it happened to be mathematics and while he enjoyed the abstractions and mental gymnastics involved in proving theorems at the end of the day opening up a shell and writing a Ruby script to demonstrate an edge case of some theorem was far more satisfying. So after attaining a Masters degree in mathematics he entered the field of software testing and reliability and hasn't looked back. These days his tools for quickly accomplishing a task are C# and PowerShell. He works at eSolar as a Software Test Engineer verifying the proper functionality of software that controls fields of heliostats at a concentrated solar power plant. The complicated nature of the software and its high reliability requirements mean that there must be a lot of automation in the verification and testing process in order to meet tight release deadlines. As the software runs on Windows the right tool for maintaining the testing and automation framework for verifying the software is PowerShell because it integrates seamlessly with all the components that comprise the testing framework.
