The lively atmosphere in Berlin and Hamburg and the warm welcome by the hosts (Bernd Ladwig and Peter Niesen) created the ideal environment to work on the manuscript. I owe many debts of gratitude to different people who have variously contributed to the preparation and drafting of this book. I am especially indebted to Robert Jubb and Peter Niesen for having read and commented on the entire manuscript. I am also grateful to Gabriele Badano, Giulia Bistagnino, Maria Paola Ferretti, Roberto Frega, Bernd Ladwig, Federica Liveriero and Philipp von Gall for their comments to parts of the book and the lively discussions that preceded and followed their comments. Discussions with Enrico Biale, Michele Bocchiola, Ian Carter, Emanuela Ceva, Alessandro Ferrara, Anna Elisabetta Galeotti, Christian List, Julian F. Müller, Valeria Ottonelli, Fabienne Peter, Enzo Rossi, Fabian Wendt and many others have greatly contributed to the formulation and refine
