Acknowledgments We are indebted, first, to the New York State Division of Substance Abuse Services, whose cooperation and sponsorship made this undertaking possible . A National Endowment for the Humanities fellowship greatly assisted the principal author in the initial stages of preparing this book. Further support in the form of travel assistance came from the Department of Community Medicine and Health Care of the University of Connecticut Health Center. At the University of Hartford Blaise Lamphier indexed many of the tapes, Paul Zocco assisted with the illustrations, and Carol Roark and Carolyn Moore did most of the typing. Ann Spitzer, Gertrude Litzsky, Barry Grant, and the late Klaus Fischer provided and helped maintain our recording equipment. Librarians Ann Maio, Jean Prescott, John Mittnacht, and Mary Ann Nesto assisted with many reference questions; Shelby Miller, Terry Parssinen, Tom Grant, and Bruce Stephenson helped in reading over the manuscript. John Boile, the Drug Enforcement Administration’s staff photographer, provided invaluable assistance in locating photographs, the reproduction of which was subsidized by a Coffin Grant from the University of Hartford. We are grateful to Claude Brown for contributing his views and insights, and to Cynthia Maude-Gembler, Lee Campbell Sioles, Sheila Hart, and Scot Danforth at the University of Tennessee Press. We also wish to thank the directors and staff of the several New York methadone programs and therapeutic communities who participated in this project and, above all, the addicts, former addicts, physicians, and administrators who gave so generously of their time and memories. ...
