I'd like to thank Packt for giving me this opportunity and Dmitri Sotnikov for pushing me to do it. Without either of you, I probably would have gotten a lot more sleep and a lot less experience out of life. I'd also like to thank Chris Kay Fraser, without whose support and vegan brownies I would have never had the confidence to pursue such a project. I'd finally like to thank my family, friends, colleagues, and anybody else who interacted with me over these past several months; I'll buy you a "thank you" beer for putting up with me. All my reviewers who took the time to read, recheck, and provide essential feedback, I owe all of you at least a pitcher of beer (hit me up next time you're in Toronto). And, of course, I'd like to thank you, dear readers; without you, none of this would have happened. I am both humbled and terrified of you.
