Howard Davis had a vision as to how he could improve the lives of all people in the future. His profound interest in the plight of individuals at the grass roots is embodied in his references to the mythical Mrs. Swanson. This daring man communicated his caring concerns to the colleagues with whom he worked. He entered their lives substantially with impact on their careers and research interests in order to achieve the first goal: improvements in the quality oflifefor all persons. Colleagues contributing to this journal expanded Davis's ideas and dreams. Each contributor develops further Davis's scientific exploration in mental health service delivery, knowledge utilization, planned change, and program evaluation. They underscore Davis's desire for the production of useful knowledge, not just an empty response to the academic reward system. Of greater importance is the recognition of his leadership in the transfer and utilization of significant new findings from the research community to public policy and service delivery
