Highlights from American Greats (from the rear outer cover): "It remains what it was, the greatest of bridges, the Brooklyn Bridge, made in America, its appeal defying time, a symbol now no less than ever of brave work nobly done." - David McCullough on the Brooklyn Bridge. "There is only one Chez Panisse. In this age of multiple restaurants it has no clones in London, Las Vegas, or Tokyo. Because Alice Waters has more than money on her mind." - Ruth Reichl on Chez Panisse. "Duke Ellington liked to claim he won his job at the Cotton Club, in December 1927, because he showed up three hours late for the audition, as did the owner, who heard only Ellington and non of his rivals." - Gary Giddins on the Duke Ellington Orchestra. "They [the editors] had uncanny ears for a false note; they sometimes surprised you by accepting a daring or experimental piece; they manifested a cloistered virtue, in a fallen, hustling world, that made appearing anywhere else feel like a dangerous trespass." - John Updike on The New Yorker. "Our original goal was simple, and only in retrospect, revolutionary: to use television to help children learn. We knew young children watched a great deal of television in the years before they went to school. We also knew they liked cartoons, game shows, and situation comedies; that they responded to slapstick humor, music with a beat, and above all - sadly - fast-paced, oft-repeated commercials." - Joan Ganz Cooney on Sesame Street. "So here I was, my anxiety over the flight spilling all over Danny DeVito, my fears at the time very real. Danny responded, 'Look there's no way you're going to crash because I am the LUCKIEST MAN ALIVE, and since I need you to do this work with me when you come back, there is no way you don't make it back.' 'Great,' I said. 'I can just picture it; the plane is on fire and as we crash I'm screaming, "Ha, ha Danny. Your luck has run out.' " - James L. Brooks on television situation comedy. "What made the Wright brothers' successful early experiments so remarkable is that neither had any academic education in physics. They were entirely self-taught. The difference between them and other small town entrepreneurs was they had a genius for learning, and for identifying new problems to solve." - John Keegan on the Wright Brothers. "West Point has always seemed to me to be unusually close to Main Street in Middle America; it is a place without glitz, which without consciously trying, reflects both the norm, the center, and the diversity of America. Again and again it turns out good people of significant personal modesty and a powerful sense of obligation." - David Halberstam on West Point.…

Signed and inscribed by BOTH AUTHORS with thin black and dark blue ink on the blank first free front endpaper, plus a great self-portrait cartoon drawing by author Ed Lowe, Jr. to the right of his autograph. "Perfectly sane people sometimes adopt odd strategies to cope with life's vicissitudes, but the answer isn't always extended therapy, says family therapist Stanley Siegel in this lively, thought-provoking look at patients and the dilemmas they face. Challenging conventional therapeutic thinking, he offers an unorthodox approach -- and in the process provides some revealing glimpses into the human psyche. Instead of trying to "fix" his clients, Siegel encourages them to appreciate their own adaptive ingenuity. In the process, something remarkable almost always happens -- as in the case of the couple who were able to build a stable relationship only after they acknowledged its value by literally building a wall within their home. Siegel's unorthodox techniques can lead to amazingly quick and lasting results. Most therapists, for instance, would have prescribed years of treatment for the apparently troubled couple who wanted children but confessed that after six years they still had not consummated their marriage. In one dramatic session Siegel helped them recognize the value of their abstinence and then face the consequences of a more conventional marriage. He received a birth announcement from them the following year. And in the title story, "The Patient Who Cured His Therapist," Siegel instigates a reversal of roles for a stubbornly uncommunicative client who then unexpectedly solves his therapist's problem. Siegel's entertaining and always compassionate account demonstrates his conviction that therapy is a two-way street where the therapist has as much to learn as the patient. And by taking the reader behind the office door, he shows convincingly that real healing is possible only when the healer truly respects his patients." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. ABOUT THE AUTHORS: Stanley Siegel, M.S.W., now in private practice, was formerly a senior family therapist and Director of Education at the Ackerman Institute for Family Therapy in New York City. (from the rear jacket flap). Ed Lowe, Jr., is a columnist for Newsday, where he writes a regular column on "Fathering." Both authors live in New York." (from the rear jacket flap).
