Читать книгу A Summing Up - Robert Eaker - Страница 5

Acknowledgments

Writing and publishing a book involve much hard work by a significant number of people. I was blessed to have the editing expertise of Lesley Bolton. To say I appreciate her and value her contributions seems woefully inadequate. It has been a pleasure to partner with Lesley on this project. She is the consummate professional.

As always, I enjoyed the support and encouragement of my colleagues and close friends Douglas Rife and Jeff Jones. To them and everyone at Solution Tree Press, I am grateful.

It is impossible for me to describe the many ways Gretchen Knapp helped on this book. She provided initial editing of the manuscript before it was submitted to Solution Tree Press. Equally important, Gretchen was a solid sounding board who provided advice and encouragement along the way. While her professional advice is appreciated, her friendship is treasured.

Writing is a time-consuming and, at times, frustrating undertaking. In this project, and throughout my career, I have enjoyed the support of Star, my wife for over five decades. For her support and encouragement, I offer my heartfelt thanks.
