Acknowledgments

First, as always, my gratitude to all the people at Focal Press/Routledge who make this book-writing process relatively painless, particularly Simon Jacobs, editor, Film and Video for Focal Press/Routledge, for his thoughtful advice and guidance, and for bringing this project to life. My thanks also to Alaina Christensen, production editor, for taking time from her other projects to work on this, and John Makowski, for his assistance.

Thanks to Jamie Vidich and his team at Bookbright Media for helping me through the copy-editing process, and many thanks to Gareth Toye for his excellent work on another cover for one of my books. Many thanks for Kate Reeves for proof reading and Matthew White for indexing.

So many people helped ...
