Acknowledgments for the Fifth Edition

In support of the fifth edition of this book, we’d like to thank Carlin Reagan at Focal Press. Jeff would also like to thank his colleagues in Film and Media Arts at Temple—particularly Nora Alter, Allan Barber, Chris Cagle, Rod Coover, Eran Preis, Mark Rosenthal, Michael Ryan, Elisabeth Subrin, and Paul Swann—for continued discussion about film and narrative. We’d especially like to express our appreciation to students in different parts of the world who, in their curiosity and in their work, keep making us feel that our own work on story is an ongoing creative investigation into what makes story work. Thank you all.
