Handbook of Couples Therapy

COMPLETING A VOLUME like this is accompanied by a variety of feelings.
The main one is relief at being able to take the manuscript off
my desk, although knowing how busy I get, my desk will probably
stay clean for a grand total of about 50 seconds. Closely following the relief
is the sense of gratitude that I feel toward a myriad of people who
were involved in helping me complete this project. I first want to thank
Dr. Florence Kaslow who encouraged me to develop this edited volume and
who was instrumental in convincing Wiley to publish it. Dr. Kaslow has always
been a wonderful role model and professional cheerleader for me.
The staff of John Wiley & Sons, particularly Isabel Pratt and Peggy
Alexander (who stepped in when the original editor changed positions), are
much appreciated.
