Acknowledgments

I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to all those who helped me write this book. This book has benefited from practical experience gained from consulting projects, and greatly from interactions with students throughout numerous sessions and courses. I have not listed all the names here, albeit I am grateful to each and every one of them.

I owe many thanks to my reviewers for their important comments that contributed greatly to this book.

Special thanks to Ms. Mary Hatcher, Editor at Wiley-IEEE Press for her cooperation, guidance, and valuable advice throughout the writing and publishing process. I would also like to express my appreciation and thanks to Victoria Bradshaw, Vishnu Narayanan, and Melissa Yanuzzi at Wiley, as well as Abhishek Sarkari at Thomson Digital typesetter, responsible for production of this book.

I wish to express my appreciation to Lisa Harel, who edited my drafts with devotion and contributed substantially to their readability and accuracy.

Finally, I wish to express my gratitude to my family: my wife, Amira Galin, who is a constant source of inspiration, has always encouraged scientific thinking and is a role model, and my daughter, Michal, and my son, Yoav, for their continuous support, important comments on the book's drafts, and for always believing.
