I would like to thank my wife, Rajnita, and my sons, Henderson and Tiraj, who supported and encouraged me in spite of all the time I took away from them while writing this book.

I also want to thank Nikhil Karkal and Samantha Gonsalves, without whose efforts and encouragement this book quite possibly would not have happened.

I would also like to thank all the reviewers for providing valuable input and making this book a success.
