Acknowledgements
A great number of people were involved in the creation of the book you are
holding.
Our Manhattan Prep resources are based on the continuing experiences of our
instructors and students. The overall vision for this edition was developed by
Stacey Koprince and Andrea Pawliczek, who determined what strategies to cover
and how to weave them into a cohesive whole.
Stacey Koprince (SC, RC), Andrea Pawliczek (CR), and Daniel Fogel (SC) were the
primary authors; they were supported by a number of content experts. Chelsey
Cooley and Daniel Fogel served as the primary editors during the writing phase.
Mario Gambino, Helen Tan, and Patrick Tyrrell served as a sounding board during
the writing phase, vetting both ideas and content. Patrick Tyrrell deserves special
mention as the source of multiple new ideas for the CR unit of the guide. Mario
Gambino managed production for all images, with Derek Frankhouser and Israt
Pasha lending their design expertise.
Matthew Callan coordinated the production work for this guide. Once the
manuscript was done, Naomi Beesen and Emily Meredith Sledge edited and Cheryl
Duckler proofread the entire guide from start to finish. Carly Schnur designed the
covers.
