Bio: Leon Pomeroy, Ph.D. holds advanced degrees in biology (M.A., U. of Massachusetts at Amherst) and psychology (Ph.D. U. of Texas at Austin). With Nobel Prize Winning Linus Pauling he founded the worlds first international society of preventive medicine physicians and served as its first Ph.D. President. He then served as President of the Robert S. Hartman Institute with resources as the University of Tennessee at Knoxville where he began reporting values and morals research using philosopher R. S. Hartman's mathematical model of value and moral phenomena. This research was then published under the title "The New Science of Axiological Psychology" by Rodopi Press, Amsterdam and New York in 2005. Unfolding in the pages of this textbook is the transformation of Hartman's value theory into an empirical science of values and morals.
