Foreword We can remember as youngsters watching the television show, Mork and Mindy. We laughed along, while sometimes feeling unable to keep up with the soaring and roaring wit that was Robin Williams. But sometimes we were able to catch on to a suspender and fly along with him for a time, and that was a ride that inspired awe. His dramatic roles were no less inspiring; for example, Awakenings played a role in some of our career choices, Good Morning Vietnam in political perspectives. We wonder, now, how he could have kept up that quick cognitive pace, and what was required to do so. Did we imagine, later in his life, that when he puffed up the smile on his lips, the light sank from his eyes? Mr. Williams may have exemplified some of the risk factors known to be associated with suicidal behavior. But maybe these were hidden in plain sight, or just plain hidden. The present volume represents current thought and research on suicidal ideation and behavior, bringing together some of the top thought leaders in the field. All authors have contributed with the hope that application of the methods and theory that is discussed within along with increased momentum in research will assist in understanding this human vulnerability, with the aim of reducing the numbers of tragic outcomes.
