Acknowledgements

I acknowledge with grateful thanks the work and patience of Sarah Busby, the Commissioning Editor formerly at RIBA Publishing. Similarly, I wish to thank her colleagues who have also worked long and hard to produce this book.

I have thankfully been able to draw on the resources and publications of the RIBA and its senior staff.

I am indebted to Richard Saxon and Gren Tipper for their advice and mentoring during the creation of this book.

The scope of this publication allows an introduction to the world of ‘clientship’, and other volumes and sources provide a greater level of specialist detail should this be required.

Finally I have to thank all those listed in detail in the section ‘About the editor and contributors’, without whom this book would have remained an idea.
