  ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

  I want to express great appreciation to Melanie Downing for her perceptive editing and substantive contributions to this book, and to Les Pockell, who helped to shape my thinking about its structure and content. My agent, Helen Rees; my assistant, Sarah Neely; and my family and friends all encouraged me. A special note of appreciation to my son, Elon, whose insights improve everything I write. My wife, Carolyn Cohen, painstakingly read through drafts and gently pushed me to make constructive changes. Even more important, she encouraged me with her love.
