Dedication

To my love, my light, my precious wife Joanne. And to my Grade 13 English teacher, Mr. Barrs, who always said I'd be a published author someday. :)

—— Joseph Balderson

I could not, and would not, have done this without the support of my partner, Joseph. Thanks for listening to me and encouraging me to press on.

—— Peter Ent

I would like to dedicate my portion of this book and give immense love and thanks to my son Kobi, daughter Mia, father Robert, aunt Kathryn, sisters Lisa, Hiromi, and Mayumi, and mother Masako, and most of all my wife Michelle. Without their love, support, and encouragement throughout the writing process, I would not have had the energy and time to complete my chapters.

—— Jun Heider

This book is dedicated to all the technology geeks out there who shunned social activity in college in order to dedicate themselves to the higher art of software engineering.

—— Todd Prekaski

Dedicated to my dear wife, Romola, and our delightful, mischievous children, Minna and Lorimer.

—— Tom Sugden

To my wife Marta, for her unconditional love and support.

—— Andrew Trice

For my friends and family; you know who you are and I hope you know how much you all mean to me.

—— David Hassoun

To my wife, Max.
