Acknowledgments

Writing a book can be a long but rewarding process; it is not possible to complete it without the help of other people. I would like to offer a huge vote of thanks to my editors in particular, Nancy Chen and Louise Corrigan. My thanks also to Kenneth Fukizi as my technical reviewer and James Markham for his help during the process. All four have made writing this book a painless and enjoyable process, even with the edits!

My thanks also to my family for being understanding and supporting me while writing I frequently spend lots of late nights writing alone, so their words of encouragement have been a real help in getting past those bumps in the road and producing the finished book that you now hold in your hands.
