Also to Ron Ikin, who gave advice on an early version of this book. To Soma Nagappan, a friend and colleague, thanks for your valuable assistance and advice. Thank you, Trish, for your patience and expertise in typing numerous drafts of the manuscript, and Kristan for your specialist advice. Of course, without the love, advice and support of my spouse, Nuala, over our many great years together, this book, as well as many other adventures, would not have been possible. Thank you for your careful reading of the manuscript and your insightful and valued advice. I have learned a great deal over many years from our three children, Siobhan, Patrick and Finola and, of course more recently, from their spouses Christopher, Fiona, and Michael.
