Thanks as well to my friends at Amazon, who have shown such enthusiasm for this book and my work: Christopher Carlin, Caroline Carr, Serra Hagedorn, Todd Hollenbeck, Brian Mitchell and Philip Patrick.
I am obliged to thank the late Carl Sagan, whom I never met but whose own Eleanor deeply inspired mine.
And finally, my thanks to you, reader, for entrusting me with your time and your heart. I hope that I have rewarded you well.
