Acknowledgements
While our names appear on the cover, many people helped make this book a reality. We
would like to take this chance to thank them.
• The other instructors who teach the iPhone Bootcamp fed us with a never-ending stream
of suggestions and corrections. They are Scott Ritchie, Brian Hardy, and Alex von Below.
• Our tireless editor, Susan Loper, took our distracted mumblings and made them into read-
able prose.
• Several technical reviewers helped us find and fix flaws. They are Bill Monk, Mark Miller,
Alex Silverman,
Jonathan Saggau, and Mikey Ward.
• Ellie Volckhausen designed the cover. (The photo is of the bottom bracket of a bicycle
frame.)
• The amazing team at Pearson Technology Group patiently guided us through the busi-
ness end of book
publishing.
The final and most important thanks goes to our students whose questions inspired us to write
this book and whose frustrations inspired us to make it clear and comprehensible.
