AB This  new  textbook  stems  most  proximately  from  George  Engel  and  his  remarkable  group  of  biopsychosocial  scholars  at  the  University  of  Rochester  where  Dr.  Smith  was  fortunate  to  do  fellowship  work,  later  remaining  of  faculty.  We  also  owe  a  debt  of  gratitude  to  Michigan  State  University,  one  of  Engel’s  initial  advocates  and  the  home  base  for  the  authors,  for  the  propitious  atmosphere  they  have  established  encouraging  new  and  different  approaches.  Paraphrasing  Robert  Kennedy,  Michigan  State  challenged  us  not  to  focus  on  why  mental  health  is  so  problematic  in  the  United  States,  but  rather  to  dream  how  we  could  improve  it.
