Acknowledgments

Looking over the development stages of this book, it is evident that a large team emerged to make its production possible. The members of the editorial and design group deserve a special thank-you. They are Hervé Gauthier, Lynn McDonald, Gilles Paquet, and Monica Townson. They made important contributions to communications with authors and participated actively in the peer review process.

Also deserving of special thanks are all the authors. They were extremely generous in contributing not only their research time and subsequent texts, but also substantial amounts of additional effort in doing revision work following the peer reviews and in response to questions that arose during the final stages of manuscript processing.
