Download or read book The Lexicon of Adlerian Psychology written by Jane Griffith and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2007 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adlerian Lexicon features 106 inclusive entries of terms (one entry per page) associated with the Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler, with a foreword by Guy J. Masaster, Ph.D., University of Texas at Austin, president of the International Association of Individual Psychology; an introduction to Adler; an extensive bibliography of Adlerian materials; and an index. Adler, who with Freud and Jung was one of the founders of modern psychology, chose the term "Individual Psychology" to represent his emphasis on the holism of the individual (individual = that which cannot be divided), as distinguished from a consideration of the individual in terms of part processes. The Adlerian Lexicon has no competitor in the English language. It serves as the authoritative reference work for practitioners, students, and scholars of modern psychiatry and psychology. Originally published in 1984, the present text is the second edition, revised and expanded.

Download or read book What Life Could Mean to You written by Alfred Adler and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rather than purporting to know life's meaning, Adler set out in What Life Could Mean to You to help each of us create our own meaning for our life. He examines a wide range of themes common to all our lives, including family and school influences; adolescent development; feelings of superiority and inferiority; the importance of cooperation; the "problems of work, friendship, and love and marriage; and the individual and society. Through a fuller understanding of these areas of life and the value of each person, Adler shows how to overcome the limitations of our past and develop the courage and confidence to transform ourselves--and the world in which we live. "We must make our own lives," Adler writes. "It is our own task and we are capable of performing it. If something new must be done or something old replaced, no one can do it but ourselves. If life is approached in this way, as a cooperation of independent human beings, there are no limits to the progress of our human civilization." A contemporary of Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud, Alfred Adler was born in a Vienna suburb to a Jewish grain merchant. After becoming a medical doctor, Adler went on to found Individual Psychology and write more than 300 books and papers on child psychology, marriage, education, and the principles of individual psychology. Adler died in 1937 and is recognized along with Freud and Jung as one of the three great fathers of modern psychotherapy. The Adler Collection is also available to you which includes What Life Could Mean To You as well as the following two publications: Understanding Life which is an inspiring work that offers direction and wise counsel for increasing awareness of self, one's motivations, and the importance of each person's unique contribution to society; and Understanding Human Nature which is as relevant today as when written, this timely reprint of a classic in individual psychology shows the way to increased understanding of ourselves and our role in society.

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.
