WM 270 G567 2002] RC564.G585 2002 616.86–dc21 2002190242 Acknowledgments This book is dedicated to our families and collaborators who contributed and sup- ported this effort to characterize the role of glutamatergic systems in addiction disorders and to develop new technologies for the treatment of these brain disorders. This book is also dedicated to Dr. Marian Fischman who died on October 23, 2001 during the final review phase of this book. Dr. Fischman’s contributions to the medications development of cocaine and opiate addiction were an outstanding influence in understanding the biology and treatment of addiction disorders. Finally, this book is dedicated to the phy- sicians Lawrence Kelley, MD, Jacqueline R. Honig, MD, Marc S. Myerson, MD, and the countless other valued medical personnel who brought one of us back from a near death experience during its creation. To Alexandra Samantha Herman, Robert H. Herman, Anita S. Herman And our families BHH, JF, RL, FW, SZ Preface Assembling Glutamate and Addiction was a two-and-a-half year labor of love. As editors, we all had the same goal in mind and pursued this with a fierce dedication. We felt that it was now time for a volume clarifying for the first time the relationship between glutamatergic systems and addiction. The past decade has seen a steady and escalating progression of scientific advances that have implicated a pivotal role of glutamatergic systems in cocaine, opiate, and alcohol dependence––both the etiology of these disorders and their treatment. As editors, we met as a group several times a year to discuss the progress and the ever emerging direction of the book. As senior editor, I am personally indebted to the superb job of the coeditors attracting the very best scientists in this field to contribute their important papers to this book. To Philip H. Sheridan, MD of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for his mar- velous ability to attract internationally known scientists to contribute to the first section of the book on the basic physiology and pharmacology of glutamate. The five stellar chapters in this section include ones by Borges and Dingledine; Witkin, Kaminski and Rogawski; Choi and Snider; Sanchez and Jensen; and Kaul and Lipton. A special thank you to Michael A. Rogawski, MD, PhD, Epilepsy Research Section, NINDS, NIH for being an early and avid supporter of this effort and bringing to our attention valuable contribu- tors to this book. It is our hope that these five introductory chapters will provide a level playing field for all readers of this book to upgrade their basic understanding of glutamate before proceeding to the other research chapters focused on the relationship between glutamate and various addictive disorders. To Jerry Frankenheim, PhD of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for his wonderful role, as senior editor of Section II, in illus- trating the role of glutamatergic systems in stimulant drugs of abuse including cocaine, amphetamine, and methamphetamine. Dr. Frankenheim displayed considerable care in editing this section. In addition, I am personally indebted to Dr. Frankenheim for his seamless job in serving as Acting Senior Editor of
