Acknowledgments

As always, I am grateful to the dedicated Blender developers around the world who devote their time and effort to improving Blender. I would like to thank my editor Mariann Barsolo, editorial manager Pete Gaughan, development editor Stephanie Barton, technical editor Terry Wallwork, production editor Eric Charbonneau, and the rest of the team at Sybex who made this book happen. I would also like to thank the Blender user community for its support and particularly those readers of the first edition of this book who offered their comments on how it could be improved. Lastly, I am grateful to my wife, Yuka, and my daughters, Hana and Beni, for their love and support.
