For Gail, with thanks for her support of this book and all the other projects in my life.

I scorn to change my state with kings.

William Shakespeare, Sonnet 29

For all of the amazing chemistry educators that I have had the privilege of learning from.

“If I have seen further, it is from standing on the shoulders of giants.”

Isaac Newton, 1676
