ACKNOWLEDGMENTS TO THE 1998 EDITION

The publication of this expanded paperback edition of Liberty and Sexuality and the research involved in preparing the extensive new epilogue covering developments since 1993 have been aided by many friends and colleagues.

My deepest thanks go to Kristin Luker for first suggesting that the University of California Press would be an ideal publisher for a paperback edition. Timothy A. Byrnes, Neal Devins, Davison M. Douglas, Robert F. Drinan, Mary Dudziak, Laura Kalman, Bruce Allen Murphy, David M. O’Brien, Jeffrey Rosen, Gerald N. Rosenberg, Nadine Strossen, and Stephen Wermiel kindly added their voices in support, and Naomi Schneider of the University of California Press rightly encouraged me to prepare a thorough postscript that would update events through May 1998.

I owe deep and extensive debts to the highly skilled librarians and computer support professionals at the Emory University School of Law: Will Haines, Amy Flick, Terry Gordon, Linda Wagner, Gregg Wagner, Dan Nagy and Deborah Mann Keene. I also owe considerable thanks to Gloria Mann, Celeste Katz, and Katie McCormick.

Jodi Michael, Marcy Wilder, and Kate Michelman at NARAL have been exceptionally helpful, as have Stanley Henshaw, Ted Joyce, Eve Gartner, and Carole Joffe. Preparing the new epilogue has been an informative challenge, and this expansion of Liberty and Sexuality’s story ought to be helpful for everyone interested in Roe v. Wade’s wider legacy.
