Suicide kills and maims victims; traumatizes loved ones;
preoccupies clinicians; and costs health care and emergency
agencies fortunes. It should therefore demand a wealth of
theoretical, scientific, and fiduciary attention. But in many ways
it has Why? Although the answer to this question is multi-faceted,
this volume not. supposes that one answer to the question is a lack
of elaborated and penetrating theoretical approaches. The authors
of this volume were challenged to apply their considerable
theoretical wherewithal to this state of affairs. They have risen
to this challenge admirably, in that several ambitious ideas are
presented and developed. Ifever a phenomenon should inspire
humility, it is suicide, and the volume's authors realize this.
Although several far-reaching views are proposed, they are pitched
as first approximations, with the primary goal of stimulating still
more conceptual and empirical work. A pressing issue in suicide
science is the topic of clinical interventions, and clinical
approaches more generally. Here too, this volume contributes,
covering such topics as therapeutics and prevention, comorbidity,
special populations, and clinicalrisk factors.
