We would like to dedicate this book to remembering the life and legacy of one of the world’s greatest psychodynamic treatment researchers – the late Dr. Enrico Jones. It gives us great satisfaction to know how proud he would be of the contribution this volume makes to the evidence base for psychodynamic psychotherapy.

To Jack, Carter and Paige who make me proud to be their father. John S. Ablon
