Acknowledgments xxi Thanks to their efforts, the field of psychology has had an enormous impact in broadening our understanding of ourselves and enhancing the quality of our lives. On a more personal level, I owe a debt of gratitude to the many colleagues and publishing professionals who helped shape this manuscript into its present form. Let me begin by thanking the professional colleagues who reviewed the manuscript and helped me refine it through several stages of development: Fred Nesbit, Sauk Valley Community College Anne Duran, California State University, Bakersfield Fred Leavitt, California State University, Eastbay Chitra Rangathan, Framingham State College Robert Stennett, Gainesville State College John Lovell, California State University, Eastbay Shane Gomes, California State University, Los Angeles Chrisanne Christensen, Southern Arkansas University Second, I would like to thank the countless instructors and students who participated in our extensive market research conducted in the early stages of the text s development including the instructors and students at Valencia Community College and the University of Central Florida, who provided us with great insight into their introductory psychology courses; the instructors who participated in the teleconference sessions and raised many important issues that impacted the day-to-day challenges of this course; and the 700-plus respondents who participated in our national survey on introductory psychology and this text. The overwhelming response we received from these professionals proved to be a rich resource throughout the development of the text. This is the first edition of the text that was developed at its new publishing home, Cengage Learning. The people at Cengage are consummate publishing professionals and I am very thankful for the supportive way in which they have welcomed me and worked so closely with me to update and strengthen the text to make it an ever more effective learning platform designed to engage students in the study of psychology and help them succeed in the course. In particular I would like to thank my new editor, Timothy Matray, for his guidance and support; my developmental editor, Tangelique Williams, for her many (too many to count) helpful comments and suggestions throughout the text; and my marketing manager Elisabeth Rhoden for her strong commitment to the text and her many creative ideas to bring the message of the book to instructors and students.
