dedication
To my wife, Ana Cristina, whose involved critical reading, frequent
meetings with the co-authors, and editorial eforts justly deserve the right
to be considered as a co-author to this book as well. It would not have been
written and completed without her organizing force.
—Charles Herrick, MD
his book is dedicated to my husband, children, and grandchildren. I am a
proud wife, mother, and grandmother.
I want to thank my son, Charles Herrick, for inviting me to co-author a
second book with him. I am also grateful to his wife for the support that
she provided both of us in bringing this book to fruition. Her editorial
contributions were invaluable.
I especially want to thank my husband, Bob Herrick, for his patience in
allowing me the time to do the research and writing that contributed to making
100 Questions & Answers about How to Quit Smoking
possible. He has continued
to encourage me to write and over the past few years I have written three books,
all published by Jones and Bartlett. I want to thank the editorial staf of Jones
and Bartlett. It has been gratifying to work with all of you.
I would also like to dedicate this book to all of the smokers who have quit
smoking. Congratulations! As an ex-smoker, I know how hard it was. his
dedication also includes those smokers who are valiantly trying to quit. Keep
trying and eventually you will succeed! I am deeply grateful to two friends
and colleagues who read parts of this book and gave suggestions. One is
an ex-smoker, who shared her journey with me, and the other is currently
trying to quit, using the patch. he fact that she is trying to stop smoking
after reading parts of this book is a testament to the fact that

hope both of you live healthy and productive lives.
—Charlotte A. Herrick, PhD, RN
I dedicate this book to my husband, Scott, and my kids, Megan, Jillian, and
Drew. hey have put up with my smoking cessation ramblings for many
years and can probably recite the dangers of smoking in their sleep. I could
not have done this without you.
