It gives me great pleasure to thank here the many people who have helped bring this book into being. This book began as a dissertation at the University of Notre Dame. I would like to thank my director, Joseph Amar, and my two readers, Robin Darling Young and Tzvi Novick, for their generous direction and feedback throughout.
The two anonymous readers for the University of California Press took the manuscript seriously enough to offer substantial advice. Their criticisms have made it a far better book. Likewise, the staff at University of California PressEric Schmidt, Archna Patel, and Christopher Beeleywere gracious and helpful throughout the process.
A number of friends, colleagues, and students have read portions of the manuscript. At different stages of its development, Thomas Arentzen, Blake Hartung, Jacob Prahlow, and Anna Williams read the entire manuscript. Amy Alexander, Amanda Berg, Laura Locke Estes, Sarah Gador-Whyte, Scott Johnson, Yvonne Angieri Klein, and Becky Walker read portions of the manuscript. They all are to thank for the version it became. All errors remain my own.
