It continues to amaze and gratify us that, since 1984 when the First Edition was published, so many practicing nurses, students, and faculty have joined us in promoting family nursing worldwide. We are especially grateful to: ■ Joanne DaCunha, Publisher, Nursing Department, F.A. Davis, for her unfailing support, promptness, helpfulness, competence, and good nature as we worked on this Sixth Edition. ■ Bob Martone, Publisher, Nursing Department, F.A. Davis, for his vision and support of our work, starting with the First Edition in 1984. ■ Christina C. Burns, Senior Project Editor, Nursing, for her initial work on this Sixth Edition. ■ Victoria White, Project Editor, Nursing, for her care in readying the manuscript for publication. ■ Echo Gerhart, Project Editor, Nursing, who cheerfully walked us through the final miles of preparing the manuscript. Her attention to detail and speed in finding solutions to issues helped keep the book on track. Finally, we are grateful to each other . . . for enduring friendship/ collegiality over some 37 years, for Caffe Beano Saturday morning conver- sations, fabulous restaurant experiences, and wonderful trips traveling to- gether in Provence, Germany, Thailand, Iceland, Inle Lake, Luang Prabang, Lake O’Hara, Pugwash, Nova Scotia . . . and more adventures await!
