ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

The efforts necessary to complete this new edition required both great assistance and forbearance. Assistance initiated with Bruce Seymour of Goodeye Photoshare (goodeye-photoshare.com), who donated much time and effort with technical issues producing the manuscript. Another dear friend, Eugene Horwitz, massaged frustrating computer conundrums. My secretaries, Jennifer Jacob and Cindy Fridley, helped gather articles and books incorporated into the work. Lynne Klippel, energetic librarian at DePaul Health Center, St. Louis, tracked down helpful references.

Great forbearance was demonstrated by my partners and staff of Allied Behavioral Consultants of St. Louis, who allowed me the freedom to pursue this task. My wife, Judy, and children, Jenny, Adam, Brett, and Alicia, and the little ones, Owen and Audrey and a Player to Be Named Later, courageously consented to miss a few ball games, several plays, and a lot of movies while I indulged sunny afternoons researching and writing.

We wish to thank our agent, Danielle Egan-Miller, at Browne & Miller Literary Associates, and John Duff and Jeanette Shaw, our publisher and editor, respectively, at Perigee/Penguin. All played important roles in shaping the contents of this book.
