I am very grateful to my parents, who have always encouraged me to pursue knowledge. I also want to thank my friends and partner, who have endured my long monologues about the subjects in this book and always have been encouraging and listening to me. Writing this book was made easier by the amazing efforts of the open source community and the great documentation of many projects out there related to TensorFlow.

A special thanks goes out to the TensorFlow developers at Google. Their great product and skill speaks volumes for itself, and is accompanied by great documentation, tutorials, and examples.
