Our deepest gratitude goes to:
++
Joe and Jere, for understanding our need to flee to the woods, the ocean, or the spa in order to make this book a reality. We couldn’t have done it without you.
++
Our family and friends, for your concern and support along the way.
++
Our faithful and loving canines, Chloe and Sophia, who slept on our laps as we wrote and gently reminded us to take time to enjoy the simple things in life.
++
Christa, Karen, and Liz, for believing in us and guiding us throughout the journey.
++
Finally, to our students—past and present—who inspired us through their journeys of research and evidence-based practice, to write a sensible and lighthearted book to ease the process.

A special thank you from Angela to Dr. Julie Beck for contributing to the Adult & Transformative Learning Influences on the Inquiry Process dialogue in Chapter 2.
