Misunderstood Mentor 1 I would like to thank Jocelyn Harris and Paul Tankard for their extensive and careful suggestions in revising this chapter. And though no footnote could acknowledge all the sound advice and encouragement Jocelyn has offered over the 17 years I have been her colleague
I hope the chapter in some small way expresses how much I have valued her role as mentor.
