## Acknowledgments The book you’re holding contains many tables, diagrams, and contrasting fonts, all in the name of simplifying some rather abstract concepts. Many people contributed their production and editing talents to make this happen, including Shari Chappell, Betsy Hardinger, Gay Nichols, and Stephanie Doyle. Special thanks go to the series editor, Debra Williams Cauley, who managed the whole process, showing the patience of a saint while dealing with frequently changing deadlines and page counts. Michael Sprague also played an important role, in helping to get the project started. On the technical side, Will Iverson made some excellent suggestions that have since been incorporated into the book, particularly Chapter 8. In the process of writing, it was extremely encouraging (if occasionally frustrating) to know what was working and what wasn’t. Much of the content of the book was influenced by conversations I had with Rich Knoph, a talented full-time programmer I work with here in the Northwest. Not only have we had many discussions about programming languages over the years, but he pointed me toward some helpful resources on the history, evolution, and fine points of C++. And thanks to my cat Purrly, who has been understanding during my long writing sessions, when ’ve had to ignore him. ### Dedication To my Uncle Reid, riding a soft, sunny wave to a far horizon.
