Acknowledgments

It took a collaboration of many people to make this book a reality. Todd Jensen and the rest of the Muska & Lipman team were fundamental in bringing this book to life.

I can’t say enough about the efforts of Jenny Davidson as copy editor. She spun her magic and took my poorly formatted, barely legible transcript and somehow turned it into this book. Thanks also to Mark Abdelnour who diligently acted as technical editor and was always happy to correct my oversights.

Special thanks to my wife Kara, my parents Ricky and Victor, my brothers Ron, Oren, and Leor, and to the rest of my family and friends for their constant support and encouragement. Thanks also to Carmen Robeson for sharing his passion for music.
