I would like to thank the people at Packt Publishing for helping me to write this book, including my technical reviewer, Mat Ryer, and Kishor Rit for answering all my questions and encouraging me during the whole process.
I would like to dedicate this book to the loving memory of my parents, Ioannis and Argetta.
