Acknowledgements

I benefited greatly from the assistance and knowledge of librarians at the Hardiman Library of the National University of Ireland, Galway.

A book like this is in many ways as good as its illustrations, and I thank those who provided figures: Philippe Archambault, Sara Barrento, Brian Beal, Guisla Boehs, Frank Alberto Ocaña Borrego, Craig Burton, Thomas Carefoot, Noèlia Carrasco, Antonio Checa, Siu Gin Cheung, John Costello, David Cowles, Jeff Davidson, Elizabeth Fly, Gael Force Fusion, Argyll, Scotland, UK, Laas Hiebenthal, Jade Irisarri, Jaafar Kefi, Anja Monika Landes, Ionan Marigomez, Katherine McFarland, Ivona Mladineo, Arthur Morris, Jorge Navarro, Sandra Noel, Jiří Novák, Aida Ovejero, Bernadette Pagoda, Peter Petraitis, David Polo, Guido Poppe, Chris Richardson, Mindy Richlen, Gianluca Sarà, Julia Sigwart, Tore Strohmeier, Tianli Sun, Cindy Lee Van Dover and David Wethey.

Thanks also to the team at John Wiley & Sons, Ltd: Sonali Melwani, Kerry Powell, Rebecca Ralf, Blesy Regulas, and, in particular, Sivasri Chandrasekaran, for their encouragement and feedback on the long course from commissioning to proofs.

Finally, and above all, I wish to thank my son, Marcus Gosling, who provided invaluable technical support and graphics expertise, and my partner, Jim, an exemplar of diligence and support.
