Acknowledgments

To those who lent indispensable assistance with the book:

 Amy Eutsey, Diana Foley, Frank Funderburk, John Montroll, and Bill Naylor for their careful readings and advice on the first edition.

 Camille Z. Charles, University of Pennsylvania; Joan Engebretson, School of Nursing, The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston; Rashmi Gupta, School of Social Work, San Francisco State University; and Erica Watson-Currie, Annenberg School of Communication and Journalism, University of Southern California. The insights and suggestions made by these SAGE reviewers provided me with direction and guidance for improving and updating the text.

 Margot Kinberg for her faith, support, multiple critiques, and friendship for many years.

 My children: Zachary, who showed me that there are many paths to knowledge and in that way inspired the book; and Jason, who helped me to understand an artistic approach that brought the book to life.

 Mostly to my lovely wife, Mary Lou, for more than I can say. I would marry her again in a heartbeat.
