I would like to thank my girlfriend for her support and understanding during the late night and lengthy writing weekends. Also, I would like to thank my parents and Rafa, my cousin, as without their support and encouragement, I would not be doing what I do today.
Last, but not least, I would like to thank everyone who challenged me and helped me grow in my professional career, people such as Carlos Carrasco, Alfred Ferrer, Pau Vivancos, Miquel Barceló, David Domingo, Marcel Roorda, Diego Morales, Alberto Chamorro, Teun van Run, Tom van Wietmarschen, Josep Cedó, Joanne Pupo, Jordi Valldaura, Mathieu Sivade, Chris Jakob, Tomas Kustrzynski, Bart?omiej ?arnowski, Rados?aw Holewa, and all those who I have forgotten to mention here.
