Encyclopedia of Glass Science, Technology, History, and Culture

At the end of this endeavor, it is now a pleasure to acknowledge (i) the encouragement initially provided by R. Conradt, N.G. Greaves, J. Livage, J. Lucas, B. Mysen, A. Takada, and Y. Yue when the project took shape; (ii) the warm welcome this project received through G. Geiger and A. Lekhwani when submitted to the American Ceramic Society and John Wiley & Sons; (iii) the invaluable help then brought all the way by Reinhard Conradt and Akira Takada through their constant advice, support, friendship, and careful reviewing work; (iv) the great many graphics and pictures neatly prepared by Joël Dyon to highlight the matter presented in numerous chapters; (v) the efforts of 151 authors working in 23 countries who participated in this ambitious endeavor and went responsively throughout an editorial process aimed at ensuring an overall homogeneity of style and content, and incorporated in their texts the relevant historical and cultural aspects evoked by the Encyclopedia title; (vi) the thoughtful comments and apt observations provided by nearly 200 reviewers whose names are included at the beginning of every chapter to recognize publicly their contributions; (vii) the original pictures or help in different matters generously provided by colleagues, friends, and institutions whose names are mentioned at the relevant places; (viii) the Humbold Stifftung, the Ludwig‐Maximilans‐Universität, and Donald Dingwell for the fruitful work done in Munich; (ix) the so many things about glass or high‐temperature techniques and processes discussed over the years with T. Atake, J.‐L. Bernard, Y. Bottinga, R. Conradt, K.‐U. Hess, R. Kerner, B. Mysen, G. Ottonello, J.‐P. Petitet, J. Roux, A. Sipp, J.F. Stebbins, A. Takada, C. Téqui, and other colleagues too numerous to be mentioned; (x) the Table of ion data compiled by J.F. Stebbins, the help provided at various stages of this study by É. Fareau, B. Gasparyan, K.‐U. Hess, A. Hofmeister, K. Meliksetian, B. Mysen, and M. Wolf as well as thoughtful comments by J.M. Parker and R.F. Tournier on the section introductions; (xi) and finally Michael Leventhal who oversaw the project at Wiley, Stefanie Volk for copy editing and Viniprammia Premkumar for smooth and responsive production of the book.

The Encyclopedia is dedicated to them and to all people whose efforts throughout the ages made glass the astonishing, ubiquitous material it has become.
