I dedicate this book to my parents, Max and Ruth Bromet, and to my
mentors, Martin Harrow, Rudolf Moos, and Thomas Detre. This book
is the final volume from the American Psychopathological Association
(APPA). I am indebted to Joseph Zubin for introducing me to this esteemed
organization. This book reflects his overall wisdom and critiques at prior
APPA meetings, as well as the passing comment he made during his very
last lecture when he chided the audience for presuming to know all of the
questions and possible answers instead of being inquisitive, active listeners.
The chapters in this book reflect that we have taken his words to heart.
