I have come to enjoy my personal delight in the printed and bound book. I find too that it has been a significant force in the development of my research process where I have been able to reach out to like-minded artist researchers to publicise their work and to sharpen my own thinking. I am as always grateful for the opportunity to work with the artists who joined in with me in these projects. My thanks are always due to my editor Fiona Harvey who has never ceased to believe in me, and all the staff of FoscoFornio.
