Acknowledgments
My sincere thanks are to my students, my colleagues, my friends, and my family members who supported and helped me in writing this book. With profound gratitude, I also pay special thanks to HRH Prince Khalid Bin Sultan and the entire team of Makshaff Service Ltd., Riyadh, where my father worked nearly two decades in the role of Senior Accountant Payroll. Without the help of Makshaff Service Ltd., it would not have been possible for my father to bear the educational costs of my siblings who got their education from the USA, Australia, and the UK universities, and I would not have been able to publish with Springer US. I am indeed grateful for the generosity of HRH Khalid Bin Sultan, General Ayed Al Jeaid (CEO), Mr. Ali Al Shaibany (CFO), and the entire Makshaff team.

I have always had the desire to have an updated publicati
