I would like to thank Packt Publishing for offering me the opportunity to write this book. I would particularly like to thank Larissa Pinto and Sweta Basu for their valuable help.

Each book represents a different period of my life, and this time, I would like to thank all my JCF-related friends here in San Francisco, for making it easier to live far from home. I would also like to thank my lifelong friends, my family, and my significant other, for being always with me.
