This book took shape first and foremost thanks to my fellow author Nigel Wyatt for the introduction and to Scott Isenberg, Executive Managing Editor of Business Expert Press in New York, for the invitation to publish it.
My dear dad hand-drawn some of the illustrations in the book, and I thank him a lot for his dedication and talent. Thank you to my dear dad and mom for reviewing the manuscript from a nontechnical perspective to ensure that the technical information described in the book is easy to understand. Thank you for your infinite tolerance and encouragement for me, which gave me the courage to write this book.
Thanks to Senior Advisor at Mans International, and my colleague Michael Rutherford, for suggesting changes on every topic over the past two years. Even when he was on vacation with his family. I really appreciate your time and continued support.

Some of the videos are newly produced, and it was too late to put the video links in the book. I will keep updating content on the KellyOn-Tech video channel (www.youtube.com/user/kellymanluo). Thank you for your time and attention!
