Special thanks go to the Book Series Editor, Professor Evangelia MicheliTzanakou, for advising us on all aspects of the book.
We thank the IEEE Press, Academic Press, Springer Verlag Publishers, and several medical and engineering journals for o permitting us to use some of the images previously published in these journals.
Finally, Jasjit Suri thanks his wife Malvika Suri for all the love and support she has showered over the years and to our baby Harman whose presence is always a constant source of pride and joy. I also express my gratitude to my father, a mathematician, who inspired me throughout my life and career, and to my late mother, who most unfortunately passed away a few days before my Ph.D. graduation, and who so much wanted to see me write this book. I love you, Mom. Special thanks to Pom Chadha and his family, who taught me life is not just books. He is my of my best friends. I would like to also thank my in-laws who have a special place for me in their hearts and have shown lots of love and care for me.
David Wilson acknowledges the support of the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Case Western Reserve University, in this endeavor. Special thanks are due to the many colleagues and students who make research in biomedical engineering an exciting, wondrous endeavor.
Swamy Laxminarayan expresses his loving acknowledgements to his wife Marijke and to his kids, Malini and Vinod, for always giving the strength of mind amidst all life frustrations. The book kindles fondest memories of my late parents who made many personal sacrifices that helped shape our careers and the support of my family members who were always there for me when I needed them most. I have shared many ideas and thoughts on the book with numerous of my friends and colleagues in the discipline. I acknowledge their friendship, feedbacks, and discussions with particular thanks to Prof. David Kristol of the New Jersey Institute of Technology, Peter Brett of Ashton University, Ewart Carson of the City University, London, Laura Roa of the University of Sevilla in Spain, and Jean Louis Coatrieux of the University of Rennes in France, for their constant support over the past two decades.
