Writing this book was harder than I thought but more rewarding than I could have ever imagined. None of this would have been possible without the support of my wonderful children, Simone and Alessia, and my lovely wife, Liliana: I feel so grateful to have such a loving family. I would like to thank my dear parents, Pippo and Maria, and my brother, Marco, for everything I have learned from them.

Thanks to all my colleagues and co-workers in K Labs in Italy and ROI Training in the U.S.A. Everything I know about technology is also due to the ongoing cooperation with them.

Thanks to everyone in the Packt team who helped me so much in writing this book.
