# Acknowledgements
The first draft of this book was made many years ago when PebbleRoad spun off a company specialising in enterprise search. The company did not take off - people told us it was too early in the game - but the knowledge remained.  Now that LLMs and GenAI are boosting enterprise search,  we decided to publish it again and update it to reflect the AI trends.

I want to thank <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/plambe/" target="blank">Patrick Lambe</a> and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-white-a7395/" target="blank">Martin White</a> for their help and support in vetting the earlier drafts of this book.
