Foreword

and supplements to the NABO International Polar Year Arctic Social Science
Program grant (NSF OPP ASSP #0732327), for which we are profoundly
grateful.
On a personal note, I particularly thank Payson and Jago for their incred-
ible energy and dedication at every stage of this collaboration. From energizing
their working group at the Eagle Hill conference through every phase of secur-
ing NSF subvention support for the book project to organizing the rapid and
effective peer review through arranging the innovative and effective publica-
tion format in close collaboration with the University Press of Colorado, they
have proved to be a remarkably talented and exceptionally capable team. Many
thanks to the editors.
