foreword]],

The foreword is a conditional introductory statement that presents background material or places in context a report that is part of a series. It is written by an authority in the field other than the creator of the report. The name and affiliation of the creator of the foreword follow the last paragraph. A foreword and a preface are not interchangeable, and the information in them is not redundant. If both are included, the foreword precedes the preface.
