Acknowledgments

Writing this book was a joy. We are so grateful to have had the opportunity. Our precious friendship has deepened, we had countless hours of stimulating conversation, and we laughed—a lot. Many people made this project possible. Smart and caring friends read early drafts and provided much genuine support: Marcy Crary, Tim Hall, Jennifer Gillan, Beth Grady, Craig Jones, Michele L’Heureux, Michael O’Halloran, Kathy Sheehan, Elissa Spelman, and Taylor Valentine. These people and many more often thought to ask, “How’s the book going?”, reminding us that we were not in it alone. Colleagues and friends at Bentley offered a wide range of resources for our work. Undergraduate and graduate students in our classes pushed our thinking and reeled us in when we went off the deep end. Kathy Sheehan and Susan C
