Acknowledgments
These volumes are the result of the very hard work and thoughtful contributions of many people. First and foremost, we thank the contributing authors who provided extensive updates of previous work and a wealth of new material in this edition and who were so responsive to the demands of the editorial process. In addition, we cannot adequately thank Sharon Nash and Russell Gabbedy at Elsevier for their guidance, efficiency, responsiveness, resilience and good humor in the process of birthing this text. And as always, we thank our families who gave up so much time with us so that this book could be written.
