1.6 Acknowledgments

Our deep appreciation and heartfelt thanks go out to Margaret Ray, University of Mary Washington, and David Anderson, Centre College, for their hard work on the previous edition of this text. Their efforts and innovations, inspired by many years of working with students in the classroom, provided us with a foundation for the modular approach that we have extended and built upon in this third edition. Thank you, Margaret and Dave, for doing such an exceptional job.

We must also thank Brian Peterson, Central College, for his contributions to every single module in this edition. He helped us to make important decisions about how to shape the content in this revision: what to cut, keep, and add. His efforts helped us create an edition of the book with even broader appeal. We would also like to thank the following instructors who helped us with the revision of this third edition of the modular textbook. Your enthusiasm for this project has been infectious.

In the past, we always trusted Andreas Bentz and his indefatigable eye for detail while we focused on big-picture issues in the sections. We count ourselves extremely fortunate that Michael Reksulak, Georgia Southern University, stepped in when Andreas was unavailable to devote as much time to this project as in the past. Andreas was a helpful advisor during early stages of the revision. Michael turned out to be more than capable of providing expertlevel guidance in the later stages of manuscript development and in the page-proof stage, when tending to accuracy and details is paramount. Michael’s efforts as accuracy coordinator were supported by the invaluable contributions of accuracy checkers Dixie Dalton, Southside Virginia Community College, Matthew S. Rutledge, Boston College, and Sang Lee, Southeastern Louisiana University. In addition, we thank Becca Arnold, San Diego Mesa College, Janet Koscianski, Shippensburg University, and Cheryl Wachenheim, North Dakota State University, for their contributions to the accuracy of this text. Many thanks to Solina Lindahl, California Polytechnic State University, who provided expert guidance on the media program associated with the textbook.

We must also thank the many people at Worth Publishers for their contributions. Elizabeth Widdicombe, president, and Catherine Woods, senior vice president, for their role in planning for this revision. Charles Linsmeier, publisher, ably oversaw the revision and contributed throughout. A special thanks to Craig Bleyer, our original publisher and now national sales manager, who put so much effort into making all of our textbooks a success. To Scott Guile, associate director of marketing, and once our long-time marketing manager, who recognized a need for a more streamlined Krugman/Wells text and whose enthusiasm for the modular format helped to bring an innovative approach to fruition.

Once again, we have an incredible production and design team, people whose hard work, creativity, patience, and dedication continue to amaze us. Once again, you have outdone yourselves. Thank you all: Tracey Kuehn, Lisa Kinne, Liz Geller, for producing this book; Babs Reingold, Lyndall Culbertson, Chuck Yuen, and Paul Lacy for their beautiful interior design, layout, and cover; Deborah Heimann for her thoughtful copyedit; Barbara Seixas, who worked her magic, as always, despite the vagaries of the project schedule; Cecilia Varas and Elyse Rieder who have worked with us through numerous editions to get the photos just right; Stacey Alexander and Edgar Bonilla for coordinating all the supplemental materials; Mary Walsh, associate editor, who wore many hats during this revision, each of them equally well; and Fay Kelly, editorial assistant, who did a fine job preparing the manuscript and art program for production.

Many thanks to Marie McHale for devising and coordinating the impressive collection of media and supplements that accompany our book. With each edition you’ve shown how far we’ve come in supporting instructors who choose to adopt our textbook. Thanks to the incredible team of writers and coordinators who worked with Marie on the supplements and media package; we are forever grateful for your tireless efforts.

Thanks to Tom Digiano, marketing manager, who picked up where Scott Guile left off, and to the many members of the sales force, some who have been with us from the beginning, on your tireless efforts in promoting our book to a wider audience.

And most of all, special thanks to Sharon Balbos, executive development editor on each of our editions. Much of the success of this book is owed to Sharon’s dedication and professionalism; in this edition, perhaps more so than most. Sharon, we’re not sure we deserved an editor as good as you, but we’re sure that everyone involved as well as our adopters and their students have been made better off by your presence.
