I will leave it to my colleague Maryann Guberman to explain and review some of the finer points of the book for you.

The collaboration was strongly reminiscent of old times in the building. It was a dream come true.
People write books for different reasons.
Some prospective authors feel they have original insights to contribute. Others hope to expand their bankrolls, while there are those who want to take pride in seeing their names in print. Organizing thoughts, developing a manuscript, which successfully communicates those perceptions to others, is not an easy task. It is an area worth evaluating for yourself. We've tried our best to keep your flame burning bright.
