Dedications

This book is dedicated to my son, Ricky Katz, who didn’t get anything dedicated to him already because he was busy being Ricky Katz. It is also dedicated to my brother Graham, his wife, Kai, and my nephew and niece Ben and Abigail, who showed great patience during the final editing of this book.

This book is dedicated with love to my partner, Lyn Birkbeck, who shows me the path in the stars, and to the memory of Emma-Mary Birkbeck, whose unique engagement with life taught me so much face to face.
