Editor's Acknowledgements The Editor would like to express his gratitude to Steven Robinson, David Salkeld, Graham Hope, Alasdair Beal and Alan Newby for their very considerable assistance in the organisation, editing and production of this Special Issue. Its production within 12 months of the Conference itself reflects great credit on the individual contributors, whose effort, commitment and patience have often been stretched in meeting the necessarily tight deadlines.
