encourage them to write to me.<br />

I am deeply grateful to the University of Alberta for providing me with an excellent<br />

working environment and to the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of<br />

Canada (NSERC) for supporting my research. I am also thankful to John Wiley and Son's<br />

representatives: John Telecki, Kristin Cooke Fasano, Kirsten Rohstedt and Brendan Cody,<br />

for their professionalism and assistance.<br />

I would like to thank my wife Goody for her encouragement during the writing of this<br />

book, as well as my son Francisco and my daughter Madison. To all three of them I owe<br />

many hours of quality time. Guess what guys? It's over (until the next project). Tonight<br />

I'll be home early.<br />

Edmonton, Alberta<br />
