We come to bury therapy and give birth to "teaching as the preferred mode of treatment." Human needs are expanding at such a geometric rate that we can no longer afford the luxury of the traditional modes of counseling and psychotherapy. They have not delivered. They can-not deliver. Those of us who are too tired to change so that we can do the things that will deliver must simply move over and allow those who are not too tired to make the changes.

This book is a collection of essays most of which have appeared previously. Many of them, however, were first prepared for lectures and were subsequently published in a shorter version than the original text from which they were excerpted. I have retained the full-length versions of these essays and some of them-for example, "The Ethics of Addiction" and "The Ethics of Suicide"—are published in this form here for the first time. I thank the editors and publishers of the journals and books in which these pieces first appeared for granting permission for their republication; Cynthia Merman of Harper & Row for help with the selection and editing of the essays for publication in book form; and Debbie Murphy, my secretary, for her customarily devoted labors.
