I would like to thank my savior and lord, Jesus Christ, for giving me strength and courage to pursue this project, to my dearest wife, Mayte, our two lovely sons, Ruben and Dario. To my father, Ruben, my dearest mom, Rosalia, my brother, Juan Tomas, and my sister, Rosalia, whom I love, for all their support while reviewing this book, for allowing me to pursue my dream, and tolerating not being with them after my busy day job.
