A reference in psychology

I devoured this book, it is a comprehensive tour of the Adler's design, namely of individual psychology. For those who have the habit of reading Freud, Lacan or all of their followers, you will see that this work is completely different as she manages to convince us that we human beings are not so miserable as that.

I appreciated the modesty of Alfred Adler who throughout the book reminds us that the generalization is dangerous is that each case is different, but nevertheless stresses the importance of typology as an initial line of research. He explains how the design interprets the neuroses, sexual perversions and, more generally, mental disorders from the social feeling (which I understand as a more or less pronounced feeling of "necessity of cooperation" with other individuals) mainly developed during childhood, inferiority complex of superiority and then deriving from it, but also the dynamic law itself also appears very young in the individual (which can be regarded as a kind of style of life resulting from the interpretation of the innate and the outside world).

Now why this discipline-te me she loved so much? Just because we feel this desire to help humanity as a main motivation of individual psychology. And she's looking beyond the correction of an erroneous lifestyle, establish a way to optimize the education of our children to allow them to avoid unnecessary suffering in the "three major areas of life "namely love, work and friendship. In short, it is to read!
