To my wife, Kimberly, your loving support and encouragement created the environment to write this book, and

your patience allowed me to focus on this book away from what I enjoy most—being with you.

To my son, Colin, your computer expertise has been immensely helpful solving the technical issues in this book,

and I admire the application of those skills to the development of your own company, Bookrenter.com.

To my daughter, Shannon, sharing your knowledge for the treatment of animals and your passion for becoming

a veterinarian is a great joy for me.
