Many thanks to editor-in-chief Annie Martin and acquisitions editor Marie Sweetman at Wayne State University Press for their strong and continuing support, as well as to Kathy Wildfong and Carrie Downes Teefey for their excellent production work. Sal Borriello once again provided the careful copyediting. Jeannette Sloniowski and Joanne Morreale helped with research, as did Ian Gordon, librarian at Brock University. Rob Macmorine of the Department of Communications, Popular Culture, and Film at Brock University and Iain Stenhouse provided invaluable technical assistance. A special thank you to Dr. Ingrid Makus, Dean of Social Sciences at Brock, for her continuing support of my research. I am grateful to the three anonymous readers of the manuscript, whose thoughtful readings provided many helpful suggestions, all of which I’ve attempted to incorporate in revision.
