Acknowledgments
This endeavor could not have happened without the section editors who did the heavy lifting of soliciting authors and topics. Sulochini Pather, Xue Lan Rong, Victoria Showunmi, Geetha B. Nambissan, Belmira Oliveira Bueno, Elisabet Ohrn, Gaby Weiner, Paula Groves Price, James G. Ladwig, Kalwant Bhopal, and Francesca Gobbo (in order of their sections)—we cannot thank you enough. Production of the volume was ably handled by Madison Flager and, in the final sprint, Summer Pennell. Of course any volume such as this takes us away from other parts of our lives. George thanks Mary for once again tolerating the distracted scholar at work. Bill thanks Kathy for understanding that emeritus professor doesn’t mean he’s available to cook every night and his two grandsons, Wesley and William, for enjoying him when he is available to them.
