Special thanks to the reviewers for reviewing this book, and thank you to my company for giving me the "free time" to complete it. Many thanks also to my wife and my son for their patience; even if it is only a re-edition of the book, writing it takes time. And finally, thanks to everyone who bought this book and who will have the patience to read it.
