We were fortunate to have eagle-eyed readers of the proofs of the book during the production process: Paul Fisher, Henry Ford College, and Daniel Lin, American University. Paul Fisher, Henry Ford College, contributed numerous new problems and solutions. Our student Michael Lauck provided invaluable help in updating figures and tables. The Mercatus Center supplied an essential work environment. Jane Perry helped us to proof many of the chapters and with Lisa Hill-Corley provided important daily assistance. Teresa Hartnett has done a great job as our agent.

Most of all we are grateful to the team at Worth. The idea for this book was conceived by Paul Shensa, who has seen it through with wise advice from day one until the end. Chuck Linsmeier has been a wonderful publisher and Carlise Stembridge has led the editing work and been a joy to work with. Becca Hicks was a delight to work with and introduced us to the key elements of a textbook. Bruce Kaplan, our primary development editor, is the George Martin of book production; he has done a tremendous amount of nitty-gritty work on the manuscript to make every note just right and he has offered excellent counsel throughout.

We are fortunate to have had such a talented production and design group for our book. Fred Dahl coordinated the entire production process with the help of Lisa Kinne. Diana Blume created the beautiful interior design and the cover. Robin Fadool went beyond the call of duty in tracking down sometimes obscure photos. Barbara Seixas showed a deft hand with the manufacturing aspects of the book. It has been a delight to work with all of them.

The supplements were put together by several people. Lindsay Neff put together the supplements team and ably brought the supplements and media package to market. Stacey Alexander and Edgar Doolan helped finalize and produce the content.

Tom Digiano stands out in the marketing of this book. He has been energetic and relentless.

Most of all, we want to thank our families for their support and understanding. Tyler wishes to offer his personal thanks to Natasha and Yana. It is Alex’s great fortune to be able to thank Monique, Connor, and Maxwell and his parents for years of support and encouragement.
