Acknowledgments

The authors wish to express their gratitude to Samson Vermont,

who has graciously provided many of the patent statistics cited in

this book.

Our editors, Susan McDermott, Michael Lisk, and others at

John Wiley & Sons, deserve much thanks for seeing this work through.

Without the tireless efforts and unfailing good cheer of Nava

Cooper, this work would not have been completed.

While the credit goes to many who have assisted us, the errors are

all ours.
