Acknowledgements
I would like to express my sincere thanks to my family and friends for all
their support in the process of bringing The Research Journal to fruition.
In particular I would like to thank Martin Bassot for his careful work on
the diagrams and Marc Bassot for his proofreading and constructive
comments. I would also like to thank the reviewers of the proposal and
typescript whose positive and helpful comments helped me to develop
the work into the book it has become. I would especially like to thank
my Commissioning Editor, Catherine Gray, for her belief in the project
and for her support, and to the publisher for being prepared to take a
risk with a new kind of publication.
