eginning with this quote by Richard Feynman, the Journal introduced two novel features in the February B 2008 issue under the guidance of new editor-in-chief Andr es Martin. With a title inspired by the Feynman quote, the “Here and There” feature began with a group of 6 contributing editors, all of whom were in the early stages of their careers. As explained in an opening editorial, the primary aim of “Here and There” was to enhance the experience of Journal readers by enabling efficient use of time by “providing both a road map through the month’s issue of the Journal and into related fields.” The “Here” in this series referred to the “In This Issue” section, which provided a short synthesis of 4 to 5 articles published in the current issue. These synopses were designed to move beyond a simple regurgitation of the abstracts by bringing the reader’s attention to common underlying themes throughout the articles that were reviewed. Since issues of the Journal were generally not thematically constructed, the contributing editor would need to search for commonalities among, for example, papers on attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and criminality, Medicaid claims data for autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and childhood bereavement, by drawing the reader’s attention to how the articles all might be focusing on the course and moderators of psychopathology, or aiming to understand the complex interplay between biological, family, and environmental risk factors. In this way, the new “Here” section, placed in the very front of each issue, offered readers the ability to obtain a brief and integrated highlight reel for the rest of the issue while hopefully enticing many readers to dive more deeply into specific articles. “There,” known as “Abstract Thinking,” had a very different objective—namely, to highlight research or other relevant articles published elsewhere. These features often included publications outside the typical orbit of journals viewed by child psychiatrists but that would nevertheless be relevant for the field of child psychiatry. With titles like “Thinking Inside the Box,” “Child Psychiatry in the (Mis) Information Age,” and “An App for That? Complexities of Smartphone Technology in Psychiatry,” “Abstract Thinking” covered articles published in sources such as Nature or Animal Behavior, as well as those from other disciplines such as Pediatrics, Annals of Internal Medicine, and Annals of Neurology. There even were citations from some unlikely sources, including a decision from the US Court of
