Acknowledgments

I WANT TO THANK CHRIS Ruddy for coming up with the idea for this book and choosing me to write it; and John Perazzo, Elizabeth Ruiz, and Sara Dogan for helping me to research it. Jim Denney did yeoman’s work as an editor, not only keeping the author honest, but making his prose more accessible to others, while providing choice anecdotes that made this book’s argument clearer and more powerful.
