Many thanks to my publishers, Isha and Francis. Without their encouragement and persistence I wouldn't have even started my journey of writing this book. My thanks also go to Francis and his team for tediously reviewing this book and dutifully running the code in each chapter. Finally, thanks to my wife, Leslie, and my sons, Neil, Ryan, and Kyle, for their endless patience and support.
