Acknowledgments


A book such as this is not written in isolation; rather it is shaped by the author's experiences and interactions with other researchers and practitioners . In large part, I gained my experience while working at University College London. I am grateful to Vicky Hardman, Peter Kirstein, and Angela Sasse for the opportunity to work on their projects, and to Anna Bouch, Ian Brown, Anna Conniff, Jon Crowcroft, Panos Gevros, Atanu Ghosh, Mark Handley, Tristan Henderson, Orion Hodson, Nadia Kausar, Isidor Kouvelas, Piers O'Hanlon, Louise Sheeran, Lorenzo Vicisano, and everyone else associated with G11, for providing a stimulating working environment, and a distracting social scene.

I wish to thank my colleagues at the USC Information Sciences Institute for their support, in particular Alec Aakesson, Helen Ellis, Jarda Flidr, Ladan Gharai, Tom Lehman, Dan Massey, and Nikhil Mittal. Allison Mankin provided the opportunity to work at USC/ISI, for which I am grateful.

On a personal note, Peter Phillips, Stewart Cambridge, Sonja Krugmann, and Alison Gardiner each helped me make the big move, in their own special way. I thank you.

The staff at Addison-Wesley did an excellent job in the production of this book. In particular, Dayna Isley and Jessica Goldstein provided encouragement to a new author and showed great patience during endless revisions. Thanks are also due to Amy Fleischer, Elizabeth Finney, Laurie McGuire, Cheri Clark, Rebecca Martin, and Stephanie Hiebert. The technical editors ”Steve Casner and Orion Hodson ”did sterling work, significantly improving the quality of the book, correcting many mistakes and contributing significantly to the text. Any errors that remain are mine alone.
