This has been a project almost ten years in the making. Needless to say, in that time period, much has transpired. When reviewing individual chapters, I was frequently transported back to the surroundings and daily rhythms of the places where I wrote them. Even individual paragraphs often brought me back to the specific spaces where I sat to work and the people that I was with. Although they may not have directly helped with the ideas within this book, I would like to extend my thanks to the friends and family who inspired me in different ways during the last decade. I also must offer my sincerest thanks to those who have had some hand in getting this project from proposal to press. Without them, there would simply be no book. For reviewing or providing commentary on the work, I thank Peter Atack, David Norris, Chua Beng Huat, Eli Elinoff, Albert Lau, Carolyn Laude, Adrian Little, Zoran Oklopcic, Ajay Parasram, Supanai Sookmark, Christopher Street, and William Walters. A special thank you is extended to Achim Hurrelmann, Hans-Martin Jaeger, and Gopika Solanki. It is because of their unwavering belief in the project that this has become possible. Finally, for her endless support, I thank my wife Ru
