Acknowledgements
This book is dedicated to Alli Antar—my best friend. Her uncompromising commitment to beauty, justice, and truth allows little rest for my lazy sensibilities. Without her, who knows where I would now be. I am grateful to Stefan Bird-Pollan for many years of conversation about Adorno and other matters. I also want to thank other colleagues and friends who did me the great honor of reading my first book or of taking an interest in its argument: Tammis Thomas, David Ryden, Greg Getz, Ed Hugetz, Mohsen Mobasher, Kristin Anderson, Camilo Garcia, and Brad Rappaport. Thanks to Jason Winfree for the hospitality at CSU Stanislaus. Norman Whitman provided feedback on the draft of parts of this book. I am grateful to John Rocco for the inspiration through his tireless leadership of roc4nbcure.org, and for discussions about future cover art. If there is anything valuable in this or my other work, it was surely shaped by the many great teachers that I have been fortunate to know, especially—in alphabetical order—Rudolf Bernet, James Chastain, John Compton, Idit Dobbs-Weinstein, Cynthia Hampton, Michael Hodges, Gregg Ho
