5 Abner Shimony and Manana Sikic
6 Acknowledgments This book collects papers stemming from a conference held in honour of Abner Shimony at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, July 18 21, 2006, together with some contributions from people who would have liked to have been at the conference, but were unable to attend. We would like to thank Jeremy Butterfield for initiating the idea of a conference in honour of Abner Shimony. We are also grateful to Howard Burton and Lucien Hardy for providing the venue for the conference at the Perimeter Institute, which also provided generous financial support for the conference. Additional financial support was provided by contributions from the Institute for Quantum Computing and the University of Western Ontario. We thank the staff of the Perimeter Institute, in particular the conference coordinator Kate Gillespie, for their dedicated efforts, which made the conference smoothly. We are grateful to William Demopoulos for his support for this volume, to Lucy Fleet of Springer for her editorial assistance and patience, to David Malament for his assistance with the editing of Howard Stein s paper, and to Paul Tappenden for the superb job he did in transcribing the Bistro Banter dialogue. Finally, we thank the contributors of this volume for their enthusiasm in joining us to honour our mentor and friend, Abner Shimony. The editors. vii
