Books normally include some or all of the following components up front, usually presented in this order: cover, title page, copyright page (samples), acknowledgments, preface or foreword or introduction, contents page and a list of tables and figures. Not every publication will have all of these elements ...

It may also express appreciation for some individual sources of information, even though a discussion of information sources may subsequently be part of a preface, foreword or introduction to the publication. In some cases, particularly in shorter publications, brief acknowledgments may be included on the copyright page. 2, record 1, English, - acknowledgements
