This book is the result of the combined efforts of a number of individuals. I wish to thank Howard Jones for his work as the book’s development editor, Johannes Ullrich for providing his services as technical editor, and Sharry Gregory, the book’s acquisition editor. I also wish to thank everyone else at Que for working so hard to help make this book a reality. Finally, I want to thank my wife, Mary, for carrying more of the workload at home so that I could find the time to write this book.
