Because this piece does not have an abstract, we have provided for your benefit the first 3 sentences of the full text.

With age comes clarity of purpose, and as JCP begins its 80th year of continuous publication, our objective remains constant: to help you, our readers, provide better care for your patients by bringing you the most clinically useful and scientifically rigorous content about the central nervous system.

For the past 44 years, JCP has been in my family’s hands, and I served as copublisher with my dad, Irving Shelton, until his passing in 2005. I have been involved with many facets of the business, from the development of tracking systems, to sales, to administration; and I’ ve watched proudly as Physicians Postgraduate Press has evolved from a “mom-and-pop” company to a modern publishing operation.
