Inhaltsangabe

The Science of Living-Abridged Edition In this landmark work, Austrian psychiatrist Alfred Adler-founder of Individual Psychology-presents his core ideas about human behavior, personality development, and the challenges of everyday life. Drawing on years of clinical experience, The Science of Living offers a clear, practical framework for understanding how feelings of inferiority, striving for significance, and social connectedness shape who we are. Accessible and humane, Adler explores topics such as love, work, family, and the education of children, showing how our beliefs about ourselves and our place in society guide the choices we make. Rejecting deterministic models of biology and Freudian theory, Adler emphasizes courage, social interest, and the creative power of the individual to shape their own life. First published in 1929, The Science of Living remains a cornerstone of modern psychotherapy and self-development literature-compassionate, optimistic, and strikingly modern in its emphasis on personal growth and social contribution.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Alfred Adler (1870-1937) was a pioneering Austrian medical doctor, psychotherapist, and the founder of the school of Individual Psychology. Initially a close colleague of Sigmund Freud, Adler famously broke away to develop his own highly influential theories emphasizing the human need for social connection, the drive to overcome feelings of inferiority, and the holistic nature of the individual. His accessible, practical approach to psychology has left a lasting legacy on modern counseling, child development, and personality theory.
