This book has taken many long years to complete, and I would be remiss if I did not thank all of those who helped and supported me along the way. First, to Jennifer Knerr for having faith in my vision of a Foreign Policy Analysis textbook. Second, to Renee Legatt, Susan McEachern, and Traci Crowell for so seamlessly picking up where Jennifer left off. Third, to Douglas Van Belle, for his helpful suggestions on one of the early chapters, and to Rose McDermott for friendship and good suggestions. Fourth, I would like to thank my old mentors in Foreign Policy Analysis, such as Donald Sylvan, Chuck Hermann, and Peg Hermann, for the excellent education they provided and the passion for Foreign Policy Analysis they inspired in me. Fifth, I would like to thank my research assistants, particularly S. Matthew Stearmer, for all of their help. Sixth, I would like to thank those publishers who graciously granted me permission to use some of my writings previously published with them, including Palgrave, Blackwell, and Lynne Rienner, as well as thank Michael Young and Michelle Young of Social Science Automation. Seventh, I would like to thank my Foreign Policy Analysis students, past, present, and future, for all that they have taught me in years past and will teach me in the years to come. Eighth, it has been a sheer delight to bring Ben Day on board in 2019 as a coauthor. His attention to detail, his quicksilver intelligence, his unfailing kindness and patience, and his unique way of looking at FPA have been so invigorating. I feel the future of FPA is bright with young scholars like Ben Day at work.
Last, but certainly not least, I would like to thank my familymy husband, David, and my children, Joseph, John, Thomas, Jamison, Rose, and Evefor their unflagging support. I wish to dedicate this volume to my dear daughter, Ariel, who died as I was finishing the first edition. We will be together in the eternities, Ariel, and if you wish it, I will tell you all about Foreign Policy Analysis then.

First and foremost I would like to acknowledge and thank Valerie Hudson. It is a wonderful and unexpected thing to be presented with the opportunity to contribute to a book that played such a pivotal role in shaping the direction of my own thinking and research. I am grateful that Valerie visited ANU as a Fulbright Distinguished Chair in 2017 and was so willing to engage with some of ANUs much less distinguished members!
I want to thank Mathew Davies for creating the space and opportunity for me to teach Foreign Policy Analysis and Australian Foreign Policy. His trust and encouragement in this regard have helped me to both improve my understanding of the field and begin to contribute to it. Teaching has exposed me to a host of wonderful students who have taught me a great dealI thank them. I also thank my colleagues in the Department of International Relations for creating such a collegial and friendly community to work within.
Finally, I want to acknowledge my wife, Laura, and children, Noah, Elias, and Laylah. I love each of you and treasure how our small group dynamics spur me on.
