       Acknowledgments

      This book would have never been written without input and help by Professor Marcus. Professor Jay Winkler from Caltech is gratefully acknowledged for his words of appreciation and encouragement after having read the Preface and the first Chapter. Doctor Marshall Newton of Brookhaven National Laboratories has been very helpful with his comments, review, and his kind words of appreciation for this work. Very special thanks are deserved to Professor Robert J. Cave of Harvey Mudd College for his most helpful very detailed review, his comments, and friendly advice. The line drawings of my figures have been beautifully drawn by Architect Andrea Cataldi.
