About the Author
Michael Britton, Ed.D., is a psychologist and retired therapist who has done research on parental influences that help children grow up to do well in love; interview research with retired high level military on the complex issues of moral responsibility involved in the planning and command of the nuclear weapons build-up in the Cold War; and the ways in which traditional, modern, and post-modern architecture express changing cultural feelings for the era we live in, the era we're leaving behind, and the era we hope to be creating. He co-established the New York Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies (HumanDHS) group, Dignity Now NYC, with Janet Gerson, Judit Révész, Gaby Saab, and Chipamong Chowdhury. He is on the Board of Directors for the HumanDHS network and is a member of its Global Core Team.
Linda M. Hartling, Ph.D., is the Director of Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies (HumanDHS) and is part of a global leadership team facilitating affiliated projects, including the World Dignity University initiative and Dignity Press. Dr. Hartling is the past Associate Director of the Jean Baker Miller Training Institute (JBMTI), part of the Wellesley Centers for Women (WCW) at Wellesley College in Massachusetts. She holds a doctoral degree in clinical/community psychology and has published papers on Relational-Cultural Theory, workplace practices, resilience, substance abuse prevention, humiliation, and is the co-editor of The Complexity of Connection: Writings from the Jean Baker Miller Training Institute at the Stone Center. Dr. Hartling is the author of the Humiliation Inventory, the first scale to assess the internal experience of humiliation.
