About this listen

This is an award-winning biography of Alfred Adler, one of the major psychological thinkers of the 20th century. It presents his entire life against the backdrop of tumultuous world events, including turn-of-the century Vienna, World War I, the roaring '20s in the United States, and the rise of fascism and Stalinism in 1930s Europe.

Adler, who died while on a lecture tour of Scotland in 1937, influenced a host of fields including psychology, counseling, education, parent-training, and social work - and directly mentored such American luminaries as Abraham Maslow and Rollo May. This book has been translated into Chinese, German, Japanese, Korean, and Romanian.
