I'd like to thank Nicola Armellini for taking the time to review this book and teaching me countless things about my work and life. Thanks, brother!

Special thanks go to my future wife, Lorena. She was extremely supportive and accepted all my "I'm busy, honey; I need to finish this chapter..." with a gentle smile. You are awesome; I love you.

Thanks, mom, your ragù and your words were both of vital importance during the writing of the last few chapters. You're a strong woman, and I'm proud to be your son.

Many thanks and appreciation go to everyone who contributed to the production of this book: Manish, Ritika, Rashmi, and Humera. Thank you for being so kind and professional.

Last but not least, I would like to thank my greatest friends, Simo, Luke, and Stefano (Panzer). Our next role-playing session is on its way.
