In "Understanding Human Nature", Adler explores human personality from all
angles - how character develops, the nature of the psyche, how we see the
world and how we become who we are.;He investigates character traits of
different types, exploring moods, feelings and emotions, from envy and greed
to grief and joy.;Through this study, we are introduced to the main themes of
Alfred Adler's work, all of which have made a significant contribution to
contemporary psychology, with many of them, such as "inferiority" and "
superiority complex", entering everyday language without people knowing their
source.;Adler is one of the founding fathers of modern psychology, along with
Freud and Jung. This translation makes his ideas accessible to a new
generation of readers in a fresh, readable and attractive edition. It
demonstrates the relevance for modern thinking of Adler's psychology and
offers readers an invaluable comparison to the work of Freud and Jung.
