Abstract

It isn’t often we get a second chance in life; especially one that changes our life forever, and for the better. This is precisely what happened when my friend suggested we attend a conference on Cape Cod. It was there I would meet a psychiatrist friend of philosopher Robert S. Hartman, Ph.D.—the same Hartman I failed to take seriously seven years earlier when my mentor, Albert Ellis, introduced me to his approach to values. The year was 1979, and his name was Salvador Roquet, M.D., and his skillful demonstration of The Hartman Value Profile (HVP) got my attention. It inspired me to make history, and what follows is a tour of those historical horizons.
