Andre Colet, the former for his freely given permission to

the University of Chicago and K. V. Sinclair formerly of the
University of Sydney now of the University of Connecticut.
Nor would these personal acknowledgments be complete without
warm recognition of the work of Ishbel McGregor on the
typescript.
