Author’s Acknowledgments
Much activity goes on behind the scenes in bringing a book from idea to reality. Many people are involved. I wish to thank the great Wiley staff — Charlotte Kughen, Katie Mohr, and everyone else on the Wiley team — for all their hard work. Thanks to Mike Talley for tech editing. Thanks to Stacey Czarnowski and the great staff at StudioB.
Special thanks to my family for understanding that, at times, sitting in front of a computer is a priority, even when it means I have to miss something special. But, darn, I did miss watching some fun movies and shows (sigh).
