I have enjoyed the journey of writing this book. The process of discovering the magic of jQuery has been enlightening and enthralling. I would like to thank my readers for their valuable feedback that I have incorporated in this edition.

This journey would not be possible without the support of my lovely family. Heartfelt thanks to everyone, especially to my parents, my husband, Aneel, and little, Abraham.

Thanks to the excellent team at Packt and to Priyanka for keeping me going. Special thanks to my reviewer, Ayad Boudiab, for his critical analysis of the material and for providing me valuable insights.
