The book is nothing but a very small token of appreciation from Dr. V's former graduate students his peers and colleagues in the profession - and not only - to the Scientist the Engineer the Professor the mentor but most important of all to the friend and human being. All those who have met Dr. V over the years and haveinteractedwith himin someprofessionaland/orsocial capacityunderstandthis statement: Georgenevermadeanybodyfeelinferiortohim hehelpedandsupported everybody and he was there when anybody needed him! I was not Dr. V's student. I rst met him and his wife Athena more than 26 years ago during one of their visits to RPI in the house of my late advisor Dr. George N. Saridis. Since then I have been very fortunate to have had and continue to have interactions with him. It is not an exaggeration if I say that we all learned a lot from him.
