Download or read book The Development of Alfred Adler s Individual Psychology written by Gisela Eife and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2019-05-20 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intention of this book is to give an overview of Alfred Adler's fundamental ideas tracing the development of his theory of psychotherapy during the years between 1912 and 1937: the compensation of inferiority feeling and the founding of the concept of community feeling in emotional experience, in body and mind and in the philosophy of life. Adler doesn't adopt an objectifying external perspective; he doesn't see the overall context from outside from a reflective distance, but rather looks from his experience of human society onto the contingency of human life. All of his theoretical concepts are bound up in this holistic approach. Adler's theoretic development shows that the basic concepts of Individual Psychology are not only descriptive labels; they grow out of inner experience. Adler expresses harsh criticism of all forms of community governed by the "will to power" and pleads for a cooperation in terms of real social interest or community feeling. This E-Book is a revised edition of the introduction to the third volume of the Alfred Adler study edition published in 2010. A new chapter has been added: »The relational dimension of Individual Psychology«. The step-by-step development of Alfred Adler's thinking is described following lectures and papers collected in the study edition. The quotations are taken from the original versions of Adler's papers.

Book excerpt: Theory and Practice of Adlerian Psychology delivers a comprehensive overview of the major works and theories of Alfred Adler, Viennese psychiatrist and founder of the school of individual psychology.

Adler's major accomplishments are integrated from a theoretical and philosophical perspective to help students analyze the threads of his intellectual and philosophical formulations for his theories. This fresh and exciting orientation to Alfred Adler's philosophy and theories is designed to foster research interest on the constructs of individual psychology (Adlerian Psychology). This is accomplished by providing an integrated platform for analyzing Adlerian theories against other prominent theories in psychotherapy. Theory and Practice of Adlerian Psychology is an ideal text for Principles and Philosophies of Counseling and Lifestyle Assessment courses, or anyone interested in learning more about how Alfred Adler's groundbreaking work changed the field of psychoanalysis.

Download or read book Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler written by Alfred Adler and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1964-12-30 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we hear such expressions as feelings of inferiority and insecurity, striving for self-enhancement and power, woman's revolt against her feminine role, the oversolicitous mother, the dethronement of the first-born, the need for affection; when maladjustment is spoken of as self-centeredness, psychological health as other-centeredness; psychiatry as the science of interpersonal relations, neurotic symptoms as ego-defenses and forms of aggression, to mention only a few instances—we are meeting ideas in which Alfred Adler was the pioneer from 1907, the date of his first important publication, until his death in 1937. The purpose of the present volume is to make Adler's contributions to the theory and practice of psychology available in a systematic and at the same time authentic form. To this end we made selections from his writ- ings and organized them with the aim of approximating the general presentation of a college textbook. Because every word in the main body of the work is Adler's, the outcome of our efforts, if we have been successful, should be the equivalent of a textbook by Adler on Individual Psychology, the name which he gave to his system.
Download or read book Personal Being written by Rom Harré and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The undoubted fact of human individuality has remained outside the field of interest of scientific psychology. Neither the central organization of consciousness nor individual powers of action have been dealt with in substantial research programmes. Yet every facet of our mental lives is influenced by how our minds are organized. How much of this organization comes from the languages and social practices of the cultures into which we are born is undetermined. In this book, Rom Harré explores the radical thesis that most of our personal being may be of social origin. Consciousness, agency and autobiography are the three unities which make up our personal being. Their origin in childhood development and their differences in different cultures are explored. Nevertheless, despite the overwhelming influence of social environment on mental structure, individual identity is a central facet of Western culture. How is the formation of such identity possible? Rom Harré ends with the suggestion that personal identity derives from the complementary powers of human beings both to display themselves socially as unique and to create novel linguistic forms making individual thought and feeling possible.
