To avoid being sent to a concentration camp, he and his family escaped to Italy, where he grew up. He immigrated alone to the United States at the age of twenty, with neither a formal education nor any knowledge of English. Working at manual jobs during the day and attending night school for English, he went on to obtain a high school equivalency diploma, a college scholarship, and a fellowship for graduate studies, eventually earning a Ph.D. in clinical psychology. In both his personal and professional life, he embraced existentialism, with its values of accountability, personal responsibility, integrity, and search for personal fulfillment. His love of the outdoors and cultural diversity prompted him to travel to and camp in the four corners of the world. During a camping trip to Scotland, he learned about the Picts, the brave and fiercely independent ancient inhabitants who fought Roman legionnaires, naked except for the paint on their bodies. He honors them with this book: A Redeeming Journey to Scotland, Searching for Pictish Ghosts.lihat lebih sedikit
