Dedication
This book is once again dedicated to my very dear family and friends!
Writing it would simply not have been possible without
my parents, Roger and Jillianne,
and their support during the endless months of writing, and
my sons Roger and Guy
who have been patient and understanding throughout.
Too numerous to mention, are the rest of my family and friends,
who have all been subjected to the same excuse:
‘Sorry – I’m writing …’.
And to my team of guardian angels who not only inspired this book but who have
provided me with the guidance and super-human strength
needed to update it each year.
And finally, I wish to dedicate this book to those for whom I wrote it: You!
I sincerely wish that my book sheds the necessary light as you
fervently study towards your ultimate goal of
joining our country’s ranks of
‘counting mutants’
Our country needs you!
(‘counting mutants’ is a reference to accountants in the quirky comedy:
Mr Magorium’s Wonder Emporium)
