Author’s Acknowledgments
It goes without saying that writers focus on text, and I certainly enjoyed focusing on the text that you’ll read in this book. However, this book is more than just the usual collection of words and phrases. A quick thumbthrough the pages will show you that this book is also chock full of images, from sharp screenshots to fun and informative illustrations. Those colorful images sure make for a beautiful book, and that beauty comes from a lot of hard work by Wiley’s immensely talented group of designers and layout artists. I thank them for creating another gem. Of course, what you read in this book must also be accurate, logically presented, and free of errors. Ensuring all of this was an excellent group of editors that included project editor Sarah Hellert, technical editor Doug Holland, copy editor Kim Wimpsett, and content refinement specialist Barath Kumar Rajasekaran. Thanks to all of you for your exceptional competence and hard work. Thanks, as well, to acquisitions editor Devon Lewis for asking me to write this book.
