Dedication

This book is dedicated to the concept that the wisdom and humility essential to the practice of medicine are best acquired by rejecting dogma and instead exploring the controversy that surrounds much of what we do every day. My lifelong pursuit of this ideal has required constant nurturing. For this, I am forever indebted to my father who instilled it in me at an early age by design and example, to three decades of residents who have helped me learn and teach in this context, and especially to my wife, Sherry, and my children, Alex and Adam, who have always supported me with love and affection.

James I. Cohen

How we develop as individuals is shaped by both our genetics and our environment. I dedicate this book to those who have directly and indirectly shaped my life, and although I am hesitant to make too long of a list, such an opportunity comes too infrequently. My parents provided encouragement, support, and love for which I am forever grateful. I have had the honor to be educated by and to refer to as colleagues, several surgeons who have been icons in the field of head and neck surgery. These men inspired me with their wisdom, surgical art form, and humility and have remained within me throughout my career. They notably include Drs. Helmuth Goepfert, Alando J. Ballantyne, Robert Byers, and Oscar Guillamondegui. Inspiration has also come from the honor and joy of training immensely talented and brilliant residents and fellows during the past 20 years. Finally, my family, including my loving wife, Mikyung, my beautiful children, Beau and Elizabeth, and my brothers, Lawrence and Marty, and my dear friends have provided endless love and care and the smiles, joy, and laughter that give my life meaning.
