Before I went to bed last night, I responded to Tim's Congrats and Carole's kind introduction of the book to SWHCLSIG. When I checked my emails this morning, I was thrilled by the additional congrat's and support from Bob, Bill, and June. Thanks again! Christopher and I had spent numerous hours (if not days), made many telephone calls, and exchanged hundreds of emails to complete the book project. It's great to see some fruits of our labor. We are also very grateful to the authors (including Carole) and reviewers who had contributed their time and expertise to the book. As Bill said, I hope this book will help our community to establish a solid footing on which our field can move forward. It's been a great privilege to work with all of you.
