To my mother, Millicent, and my father, Rubin, who provided me with the gift of life and the desire to use that gift effectively. To my mother-in-law, Cumi Elena Crawford, for her faith, trust, and inspiration, and to my wife, Mary Ann, for her enduring love and continuing support.
—Leonard D. DuBoff
To my husband, Greg—without any doubt the love of my life; my father, a lawyer who instilled a sense of justice in me from my earliest years; my mother, who always set a good example with respect to the English language; both my brothers Bill; and my son Bill.
—Sarah J. Tugman
