The plan for this book was developed primarily by Steven M. Cahn, and the bulk of the writing was done by Victor L. Cahn. We share equal responsibility for the final product.
We are particularly pleased that Mary Ann Caws has provided a foreword, and deeply appreciate her generous words.
We wish to thank Wendy Lochner, our editor at Columbia University Press, for her support and guidance. We also thank editorial assistant Christine Dunbar, manuscript editor Leslie Kriesel, and other members of the staff of the Press for assistance throughout production.
