The Pattern of Life

The Pattern of Life –

2011 Reprint of 1930 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Adler, along with Freud and Jung, created an entirely new branch of psychology, namely psychoanalysis. “The Pattern of Life”, with an introduction by W. Beran Wolfe, the editor of Adler’s clinical cases, demonstrates the method and technique of “Individual Psychology” so characterized by the Adlerian school of neurosis and psychotherapy. It does this by introducing the reader to the clinical procedure used by Adler in handling cases of wayward and defective children. According to the reviewer, the whole book is filled with good common sense plus keen scientific insight into the problems of maladjustment.
