Superiority and Social Interest: A Collection of Later Writings by Alfred Adler, edited by Heinz L. and Rowena R. Ansbacher – first edition.
About the book
This collection gathers Adler's later papers, in which he developed his mature ideas of social interest, the striving for superiority and the style of life. It also includes a biographical essay and Carl Furtmüller's memoir of Adler, making it a key companion to The Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler.
The writings gathered here date mostly from the last decade of Adler's life, when his thinking had moved beyond the early theory of inferiority and compensation to a broader view of human beings as creative, goal-directed and fundamentally social. Topics include the meaning of life, neurosis, crime, religion and the education of children.
The Ansbachers' editorial work made Adler's scattered late papers accessible in English for the first time, and the book remains a key source for Adlerian psychology.
