Acknowledgments for the Second Edition

For the second edition I wish to thank my editor, Robert J. Denn, for his patience and hard work in getting the book done. Thanks to Ray Lischner for his technical insight. Al Stevens deserves special recognition for his extensive knowledge of C++ and his exacting standards. His efforts helped me to tighten the terminology and refine the examples in the book, resulting in a much more precise manuscript. Any errors in this book are my own and are not the fault of the reviewers or of the staff at O'Reilly.

Also I wish to give credit to all the sales and marketing people at O'Reilly who work so hard to sell my book.
