Acknowledgements
A project such as this involves many moving parts and players. First and
foremost, let us thank each of the contributing authors ­ Donald A.
Brown, Trevor Daya-Winterbottom, Jan Glazewski, Bernard D. Gold-

by other contributing authors, and for patience along the way.
We are also grateful to Widener University School of Law for hosting
the first national conference in the United States on the confluence of
shale gas and sustainability, `Marcellus Shale Development and Pennsyl-
vania: What Lessons for Sustainable Energy?,' held on 27 September
2013 at its campus in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. While this book has a
broader focus than the conference ­ including not only Pennsylvania and
elsewhere in the United States, but also other countries where shale gas
development issues are emerging ­ many of the contributing authors were
speakers at this conference. In addition, many ideas first expressed at the
conference are further developed in this book.
Next, we had terrific assistance from Ms. Debbie Dantinne, who
helped with formatting, constructing the draft manuscript, and author
biographies, and Jeremy Wingert, who ...
