I thank my family for being encouraging and supportive and special
thanks to my friends for always inviting me on parties even though
I constantly refused to join them by giving them the same boring
reason that I am busy with writing.
This book means a lot to me since I have spent all my weekends
and free time writing this book for the past 6-7 months. However,
this book would not have been possible without some individuals
who have worked alongside me during the writing, reviewing, and
publishing phases.
I would thank James Lumsden for giving me the opportunity
to write this book. I would also like to thank Neelkanth Mehta,
Swapna Verlekar, Dhiraj Bellani, and all my technical reviewers
for proofreading, reviewing, and rening the content of this book;
without their efforts, this book wouldn’t have been completed.
