Acknowledgments

A book like this requires the knowledge, skills, and talents of many people to take it from initial idea to finished product. I was fortunate to work with a world-class team. Pete Meyers helped me shape the outline and offered invaluable feedback. Dawn Frausto worked with me every step of the way, editing with care, extraordinary attention to detail, and a much appreciated sense of humor. Because this book covers such a broad range of topics, I needed the expertise of quite a few technical reviewers. Thanks to Willis Brown, Farhad Ebrahimi, Don Willmott, Michele Brogunier, Vivina Boster, and Photina Ree Brown for their suggestions, comments, and corrections. Thanks also to copyeditor Alison O'Byrne for rooting out typos, inconsistencies, and other mistakes, and to Ron Strauss for writing a great index.

As always, my husband Steve Holzner was loving and supportive throughout the many long hours it takes to write a book. (He's written more than 125 books himself, so he knows better than most what the process requires.) Thanks to him for hand-holding, back-patting, and steady supply of pizza on the weekends. He's the best!
