Acknowledgments

The authors would like to acknowledge the many people who helped make this book possible.

From Mike

Writing this book has been quite an experience, and it was made possible only by the efforts and support of the people I worked with. My editor, Chuck Toporek, put in a lot of time on this book and kept this first-time author on course and in the right frame of mind with his kind words of encouragement and level-headed advice. He has become a good friend over the past year that we’ve worked together on this project.

I am grateful to Duncan for his efforts in helping me shape up the book and for contributing the material on Objective-C. Duncan is quite a person to work with, and I look forward to working with him on this book in the future. Any success of this book is due in no small part to both Chuck and Duncan. These two make a great team, and I am fortunate to have the opportunity to work with them.

Thanks to the tech reviewers: Scott Anguish, Sherm Pendley, and the engineers and technical writers at Apple who were kind enough to take time out of their busy lives to review the book. Special thanks go to Malcolm Crawford for going above and beyond the call of duty by providing in-depth comments and suggestions and working closely with us to give the book its final polish. His upbeat attitude and British charm helped us all bring this book to completion.
