I would like to thank a lot of people who have supported me during
I worked with earlier) provided all the support and encouragement
I needed. The technical reviewers, Alvaro Garcia, Esko Luontola,
Jeff Deskins, and Muhammad Ali, did a great job by constantly
challenging my views, my assumptions, and the quality of the code
featured throughout the examples. Alvaro provided even more help
by writing the Legacy Code chapter. His experience and expertise
in the subject were an invaluable help. The Packt Publishing team
was very forthcoming, professional, and always available to provide
guidance and support. Finally, I'd like to give a special thanks to my
daughter, Sara, and wife, Eva. With weekdays at my job and nights
and weekends dedicated to this book, they had to endure months
without the support and love they deserve. This book is dedicated to
"my girls".
