My deepest thanks to:
Ruth Berger, Lora Kolodny, Erica Crowell, Marlee MacLeod, and Jaime Kleiman, for reading the early and late drafts, providing invaluable insight and advice, filling in the blanks, and for the ineffable much. As always, yours.
Megan Rye, who can probably recite the thing. For stretching and pushing, correcting and demanding, inspiring and challenging, and occasionally lying. For all the rest. No way to say thank you for that.
My family, which survives it and accepts it and never-endingly gives. Jay, Judy, Steve, Gayle, Andy, Roger, Christie, and everybody out west. You are my greatest gift.
My agent, Sydelle Kramer. Constant, certain guidance on far more levels than are really required of you. For getting this book and all the others out of me in the first place, for my career and much of my sanity, thank you.
My brilliant editor at Houghton, Deanne Urmy. This book is ours, not mine. If it's any good, that's your fault.
And Jeff. Not enough words for you. Ask me sometime.
* These figures are drawn from a number of sources—medical and psychological periodicals, policy reports and budgets, books published within the past seven years (most listed in the bibliography), and other sources. The numbers I've used are those most consistently cited across the literature; there is some variation between sources, and different studies come up with a range of conclusions. However, these numbers are representative of common conclusions in the research. By the time this book is published, the precise percentages may have changed, but they all indicate consistent trends.
