The inspiration for this book came from the Fellows of the US National Institutes of
Health Summer Institute on Behavioral Randomized Clinical Trials. Over its rst
19years, the Institute trained over 800 Fellows in behavioral clinical trial methodol-
ogy. These Fellows contributed to the evolving methodology in behavioral trials
with their questions. Although the diseases and treatments varied from Fellow to
Fellow, and from year to year, their questions were much the same. They were less
interested in how to do something than they were in why they should do it. These
questions informed the choice of topics for each of the chapters as well as the style
of presenting them. I want to acknowledge the leadership of Peter Kaufmann who
conceived, founded, and led the Summer Institute from its beginning in 2000, and
Kate Stoney who later assumed leadership and pulled it off with equal success. I
also want to acknowledge the support provided by the US National Institutes of
Health Ofce of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research, which was initiated by
Peter Kaufmann and continued by Raynard Kington, David Abrams, Bob Kaplan,
Bill Riley, and Christine Bachrach.
This book’s focus on the integration of good science and good methods came from
my inspirational sabbatical year at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral
Sciences at Stanford University. During that year, scientists from diverse areas of
behavioral sciences, including philosophy, political science, law, psychology, soci-
ology, evolutionary biology, anthropology, linguistics, economics, geography, his-
tory, public affairs, public health, and literature, presented their work. These diverse
disciplines pursue behavioral problems from different perspectives, contribute a
piece of a puzzle, and together progress knowledge. The Center encouraged us to
look beyond the science of any single discipline in pursuit of excellence within our
own. I would like to extend my sincerest admiration and gratitude to Margaret Levi,
the charismatic Director of the Center, for her vision and for the many ways she
encouraged discovery through cross-fertilization.

All chapters have been reviewed by at least two junior or senior investigators with
interests and expertise in behavioral clinical trials. These reviews were not always
easy, as is clear from such comments as– “I have no idea what you are trying to
say!” “You have completely missed the point.” But they helped us to see weak-
nesses and enhance strength. A special shout-out goes to Rachel Wu who reviewed
and commented on every single chapter. Her basic science studies led her to make a
creative leap to interventions. To do so, she needed to “learn about this stuff.” All of
these reviewers are listed in the Appendix. We thank them sincerely for their help.
On a more personal level, I would like to thank Bob Kaplan for his ongoing encour-
agement. He has written 21 books; this was my rst. He never stopped asking for
progress reports, providing tips, and normalizing the challenges. He expected suc-
cess, and it was infectious. I would also like to thank Rick Reiss for his emotional
support. After long hours at the computer on a beautiful summer day, he would
describe what his day had been like on the outside, helping me to experience vicari-
ously a post-book life. I am hoping that my family and friends, particularly Celeste
Fraser, will now give me a second chance after several years of declining their many
invitations.
And nally to Joyce Mack, my faithful Assistant, I give my heartfelt thanks. Joyce
worked on every reference, gure, table, and formatting problem, obtained all the
permissions, and served as a liaison between me and many moving parts of this
book. She did this with a commitment to excellence, and a sense of ownership, that
was equal to mine.
