undertake this book but made it possible for us to do so, and Maria Guarnaschelli of Norton, who has been everything and more that one could hope to find in an editor. Camille Smith, who as a manuscript editor over the years has made hundreds of writers and academics look smarter than they are, has done the same for us. Thank you, Camille. And most important, we thank our families and our spouses, Wendi and Carolyn, for teaching us the value and power of social connection.
