Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animals on the cover of Practical VoIP Using VOCAL are snipefish. There are about 10 or 12 species of snipefish, living mainly in tropical, subtropical, and temperate waters--just about all over the world, in other words--and eating small marine animals. Their distinguishing characteristic is a long, tubular snout, which starts out short and stubby but lengthens as the fish grows to its maximum size of up to 30 centimeters. Their tiny jaw, sans teeth, is at the very end of the snout. Some snipefish, such as the ones on the cover, also have a long, pointed spine stretching back from the dorsal fin. Jane Ellin was the production editor, Norma Emory was the copyeditor, and Audrey Doyle was the proofreader for Practical VoIP Using VOCAL. Darren Kelly, Sue Willing, and Phil Dangler provided production assistance. Lucie Haskins wrote the index.
