As becomes apparent from reading the notes, the book would not have been possible without their pioneering work on subjunctive conditionals.

Closer to home, I am indebted to my colleagues Rolf Eberle and Henry Kyburg, Jf., my erstwhile colleague Keith Lehrer, and numerous graduate students for their helpful comments on various parts of the manuscript. Some of the material contained herein appeared first in the form of journal articles, and I wish to thank the journals in question for allowing the material to be reprinted here.
