ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

 

 

 

 

I would like to thank several people for their help with this project. Courtney Martin provided invaluable advice and assistance with the Internet survey and helped to organize and interpret the responses. Jeff Manuel, Matthew Schneider-Meyerson, and Jason Stahl provided outstanding research assistance. I am extremely grateful to Sara Evans, Susan Faludi, Lary May, and Riv-Ellen Prell, who read the entire manuscript and gave me thoughtful comments and suggestions. Thanks also to all those at Basic Books who helped with the production, including Whitney Casser, Susanne Caulfield, Laura Esterman, Lara Heimert, and Amanda Moon, and to Elizabeth Bell for her excellent copyediting. My agent, Sandra Dijkstra, was a wonderful shepherd for the book from beginning to end.
