We study diffeomorphisms of compact, oriented surfaces, developing methods of
distinguishing those which have positive factorizations into Dehn twists from
those which satisfy the weaker condition of right veering. We use these to
construct open book decompositions of Stein-fillable 3-manifolds whose
monodromies have no positive factorization.
