This book is dedicated to the two people who have affected my life in the most profound ways.

 

To my wife, Kathleen Conway Hurley, whom I have been blessed to call my wife and trusted partner for over thirty years. No one lives the ideas concerning trustworthiness found in these pages better than you.

 

To my father, Francis Joseph Hurley, who in life's brief moments, between baseball games and at the dinner table, somehow instilled in me self-trust and an interest in the world of ideas.
