Nbsp;   Acknowledgments

I couldn’t have written this book without the help and technical assistance of many people. In particular, I’d like to thank my family. The amount of time and effort that goes into writing a book is hard to measure. All I know is that I could not have pro- duced this book without the support of my wife, Kristin, and my two sons, Aidan and Grant. There were many times when we wanted to spend time together but were un- able to due to book obligations. Now that the book project is completed, I really look forward to adventures we will all share together.

For this book revision, I truly had some fantastic people helping me. Several people on the .NET Framework team (many of whom I consider friends) reviewed chapters and participated in stimulating conversations with me. Christophe Nasarre, who I’ve worked with on several book projects, has done just a phenomenal job of verifying my

work and making sure that I’d said everything the best way it could possibly be said. He has truly had a significant impact on the quality of this book. As always, the Microsoft Press team is a pleasure to work with. I’d like to extend a special thank you to Ben Ryan, Devon Musgrave, and Carol Dillingham. Also, thanks to Susie Carr and Candace Sinclair for their editing and production support.
