Summary
I would like to thank Julie Lund, Andy West, Katie Treharne, James Olsen, and James Faulconer for their invaluable help in the preparation of the typescript of this book. Many people and entities at Brigham Young University contributed time and resources in support of the conference out of which this volume has grown. I am indebted in particular to Alan Wilkins, Van Gessel, Ron Woods, Dennis Rasmussen, Andrew Skinner, and Katie Treharne for their contributions to the conference. It was Bert Dreyfus who provided the inspiration for this project, and I am grateful to him for the many conversations and correspondences we have had on the subject.
