I want to express my sincere gratitude to Jim Minatel at John Wiley & Sons for giving me this opportunity. I would also like to sincerely thank my editor, Tom Dinse, for his attention to detail and for his excellent suggestions in helping to improve this book. I am very appreciative of the input provided by Tarik El-Masri, Alex Baryudin, and Elis Gitin. I would also like to thank Matt Holt, Devon Lewis, Pete Gaughan, Kenyon Brown, Kathleen Wisor, Barath Kumar Rajasekaran, Steven Stansel, Josephine Schweiloch, and Betsy Schaefer.

During my career, there have been several notable giants with whom I have worked and upon whose shoulders I clearly stand. Without these people, my career would not have taken the right turns: John Zachman, Warren Selkow, Ronald Ross, David Hay, and the late John Hall. I would like to recognize the renowned Grady Booch for his graciousness and kindness to contribute the Foreword. Finally, I would like to acknowledge the efforts of Cole Stryker for helping take this book to the next level.

Neal Fishman

Thanks also to Jason Oberholtzer and the folks at Gather for enabling my work at IBM. Lastly, I'm grateful to Neal Fishman for sharing his vision and inviting me to contribute to this important book.
