Acknowledgments
This book could not have been written without the support of my mother and siblings. Their warm enquiries about the manuscript’s progress were always deeply felt, and they also helped to fix my mind to stay focused. My friends also deserve to be thanked for their continuous support of all my academic projects. I also would like to thank Springer’s senior editors and their officers for the assistance provided during the various stages of the manuscript development. Finally, I would like to thank Robert Trevethan for all his Socratic questions that forced me to be more precise, pay more attention to detail, and be patient. His editorial input was also invaluable.
