RITING AND PUBLISHING this book required a lot of help and I got it on all fronts. On the research side, I am grateful to the librarians at the UCLA research and law libraries, who were patient with my inquiries and generous with help. Online services can sift through millions of pages of material instantly, but nothing comes close to the creative thinking of a human being. The UCLA librarians are the best in the business.
