About the Author

Jesse Feiler has been a user of Macs and Mac software since the beginning in 1984. Through his consulting company, North Country Consulting ( www.northcountryconsulting.com ), he provides services to small businesses and nonprofits, with an emphasis on FileMaker and OS X. He is also the author of the MinutesMachine app for managing meetings.

Active in the community, he has served on a variety of nonprofit boards and projects primarily in community development, the arts, and public libraries. The New York State Association of Library Boards honored him with an award for exemplary service and dedication to libraries in part for his role in bringing public access Internet to small rural libraries in upstate New York.

Jesse has written extensively on OS X (and its precursor, Rhapsody), FileMaker, and Apple technologies, such as Core Data and Objective-C, as well as mobile devices and tools, such as Drupal. He lives in Plattsburgh, New York with a rescued greyhound, Rex, who has been absolutely no help on this (or any other) book.

Authors Acknowledgments

Many people have helped bring this book together. First of all, my agent, Carole Jelen, at Waterside Productions, provided her usual valuable insight and suggestions. Colleagues and clients at North Country Consulting put in their comments and suggestions about the book and the features they use most in the iWork applications.

Kelly Ewing, project editor, has been an enormous help as weve struggled through the complexities of capitalization of technical terms (a constantly moving target). Dennis Cohen has provided invaluable technical assistance. Thanks also to Laura Bowman, the proofreader.

In addition to the names of those listed on the Publishers Acknowledgments page, my thanks to the Apple technical documentation staff, who have maintained their usual high standard of documentation for developers, making it easy to see how the software is put together.
