Today is a good day to thank all the project managers and worldwide
project professionals who contributed their opinions, experiences,
and practices to this project, directly or indirectly. We thank the editors at
Berrett-Kohler who sponsored us, offered their commitment, enthusiasm,
feedback, and support throughout the entire project. And we especially
thank our wives, Marilyn and Rose, who continued their unwavering
support and encouragement during the process of writing this book.
