Author’s Acknowledgments
I am grateful to the entire Wiley team for their hard work, support, and professionalism. Special thanks to my top-notch editor, Susan Pink, for her attention to detail, sense of humor, and friendly exchanges about topics ranging from Buffalo to bees. The phrase, “this what, please?” is forever engrained in my brain! Thanks, too, to Kirk Kleinschmidt, for unearthing technical inaccuracies and sharing insights based on a wealth of experience, and to Katie Mohr for shaping this project and allowing my deadlines to slip a bit.
I’d also like to acknowledge the developers of Inkscape for providing the user-friendly, open-source vector graphics program I relied on to create and edit the figures in this book, and to the many unnamed users in the Inkscape community who created and publicly shared clip art of everything from rulers to resistors.
Finally, I’d like to thank Bill, Kevin, Peter, Brendan, and Patrick for their steadfast love and support.
