Acknowledgements
Work on this book project got seriously under way during a sabbatical in 2014–2015. I thank St. Francis University for providing me with this opportunity. As the work evolved I received support from various individuals. I am grateful to Peter Mallory and Laura Eramian for their constructive comments and advice on the book proposal. I also received useful feedback on several chapter drafts from Patricia Cormack and Peter Mallory. Elizabeth Marmura took the time to proofread the final draft, and this too was greatly appreciated. Additional advice and/or encouragement came from Lynda Harling-Stalker, Norine Verberg, Rod Bantjes, Riley Chisholm, John Phyne and David Lynes. Shaun Vigil at Palgrave Macmillan provided friendly guidance throughout the proposal and manuscript preparation process. So too did Glenn Ramirez during the final stages of manuscript preparation and submission. I benefitted greatly from the insights of three very knowledgeable anonymous reviewers who supplied feedback on the book proposal and sample chapters. The third reviewer also provided very helpful and supportive comments regarding the complete draft. M
