Abstract
The longer I live and the more tolerant I grow, the more convinced I become that the universe I live in is a pluralistic one and that it takes all types and conditions to make a world, particularly a scientific world. Nevertheless, I cannot claim that I have completely outgrown every bit of my infantile egocentrism, and the models I use to conduct my daily professional business—whether of teaching, treating, or investigating—tend to be idiomatic and pervaded with personal attributes and feelings. What I have to say about research, therefore, will bear the mark of my bias. I would like this consideration to be kept in mind during the reading of these comments when any seemingly inconsistent ideas make their appearance.
Read before the annual meeting of the Society of Professors of Child Psychiatry, Gainesville, Florida (1968), and published in the Archives of General of Psychiatry, October 1969, Volume 21.
