Dedicated to

my wife, Dr. Poonam Zope,

and my son, Vedant Zope.

With heartfelt thanks to my sister, Anuradha Chaudhary,

who started my journey into psychology.

For everyone who has ever wondered

what is going on inside their own mind,

and for the people who help them find out.

विद्यादानं महापुण्यम्

vidyā-dānaṃ mahāpuṇyam

The gift of knowledge is a great merit.
