xv Acknowledgments I dedicate this book to my wife, Myrna, for her constant encouragement and support. I would also like to acknowledge Ljudmila Djukic for her many fine contributions to this publication and honor the memory of Professor Thomas Head, my dissertation supervisor, for his patience and the knowledge he gave me, which I shall never forget. Finally, I would like to especially mention Matthew T. Herbst and Brenda K. Thacker for the special contributions they made above and beyond the call of duty to bring this publication to a successful conclusion.
