About This eBook
ePUB is an open, industry-standard format for eBooks. However, support of ePUB and its many features varies across reading devices and applications.

Acknowledgments
If you re-read your work, you can find on re-reading a great deal of repetition can be avoided by re-reading and editing.
William Safire
In the fast-paced world of computer book writing, where deadlines come whooshing at you at alarming speeds and with dismaying regularity, rereading a manuscript is a luxury reserved only for those who have figured out how to live a 36-hour day. Fortunately, every computer book does get rereadnot once, not twice, but many times. I speak, of course, not of the diligence of this books author but of the yeoman work done by this books many and various editors, those sharp-eyed, red-pencil-wielding worthies whose job it is to make a books author look good. Near the front of the book you find a long list of those hard-working professionals. However, I worked directly with a few folks, and I would like to single them out for extra credit: acquisitions editor Laura Norman, development editors Brandon Cackowski-Schnell and Todd Brakke, project editor Lori Lyons, copy editor Geneil Breeze, Kathy Ruiz, and technical editor Greg Kettell. A heaping helping of thanks to you all!
