Dedication
“Life is no brief candle to me; it is a sort of splendid torch which I've got
a hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as
possible before handing it on to future generations.”
George Bernard Shaw
Irish playwright (1856–1950)
The editors were fortunate indeed to have outstanding mentors who
dedicated their professional lives to the development of our generation
in the specialty. Through their guidance, wisdom and actions, they truly
handed the torch to us. As their progeny, we are ever grateful
for both their professional guidance and their personal friendship.
In recognition of their influence on us individually, and the
specialty overall, we dedicate this book to:
