acknowledgments

With thanks to Kathee Jones and Laurel Bollinger, who insisted this part of the story could not be
skipped over, and to Anne Groell and Rich Powers and Gary Snyder, who helped give it shape, and to
Cathy, whose influence is more pivotal than she sometimes suspects. Thanks also to Paul F. Dietz and
Malcom Longair for help with the astrophysics of condensed matter, to John H. Mauldin for his
authoritative book on starships, and to Chris McCarthy for his data on Barnard’s Star.

This story rests on a foundation of ideas built up over many years, with the help of dozens of people
who’ve been copiously cited for it elsewhere. Nevertheless, special thanks are owed to Shawna
McCarthy, Mike McCarthy, Vernor Vinge, Scott Edelman, Chris Schluep, Anne Groell, Bernard
Haisch, Richard Turton, and Sir Arthur C. Clarke.

Any errors in this book are, I assure you, the printer’s fault.
