Acknowledgements
This book grew out of my doctoral dissertation, which I finished in Australia. It is noteworthy to think of how much Sydney’s beaches and the sun have nourished the content of this book. I would like to express my thanks to the place and people first: thanks to Australia, the natural and cultural environment of which made me naturally join in without feeling like an alien, and the spirit of which has seemingly encouraged me to never act like a tame bird.
