He was "constantly and unfavourably compared with his twin brother" and sought approval by assuming the role of carer for his invalided mother.〔 〕 He left school at fifteen〔 〕 and joined a monastery at eighteen for a period of 7 years. He left the monastery a month before taking his vows "having lost all belief in Catholicism" immediately left his devoutly religious family, who had rejected him.〔 〕 He sought alternative spirituality and put himself through night school to obtain a degree and higher diploma in Physical Education, followed by an MA in 1977〔 〕 and PhD in 1983〔 〕 in Psychology. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tony Humphreys」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
