My sister, Colleen, was often considerate in keeping track of this diligent scholar. My parents, Martha and Jack, have been caring, understanding, and patient with the many leaps I have taken in my research and my life goals. Thankfully, and with much luck, I keep landing on my feet.
My fiancée, Allegra, has supported me loyally throughout the past few years on this project, as she has on everything I have ever undertaken. I cannot thank her enough for her love, patience, and for all of those small, tender moments that matter so very much. It is to her that I dedicate this book.
