A number of my friends and colleagues have been burdened by reading my work and I thank the following especially: Robert Barrett, John Barry, Mark Beard, Derek Bell, Margaret Canovan, Robyn Eckersley, Cecile Fabre, John Horton, Ken Jones, Rosemary O'Kane, Raia Prokhovnik, Angel Rivero, Mike Saward, Piers Stephens, Hidemi Suganani, Angel Valencia, Rob Walker, and Marcel Wissenburg, Most of them will recognize my attempts to deal with objections they raised and suggestions they made, but none of them is likely to be fully satisfied. Some of them, indeed, pointed towards work that lies beyond the scope of this book — or at least I take temporary refuge in that thought. Thanks to Fran Ford, too, for helping me through my first year at the Open University, and to Dominic Byatt at Oxford University Press for his sympathetic editing.
