Acknowledgements

It would be impossible for a project of this sort to be launched without the combined efforts and participation of many individuals and groups of people. First and foremost, I want to thank the people of Greensboro and Hale County for welcoming a psychiatrist from southern California to become part of their community and for teaching me many important lessons about life.
