Excerpt from The Neurotic Constitution Outlines of a Comparative Individualistic Psychology and PsychotherapyAfter I had made the attempt to investigate in the Studie über Minderwertigkeit von Organen the structure and tectonic of organs in association with their genetic basis, their functional capability and destiny, I proceeded, supporting myself upon already available data as well as upon my own experience, to apply the same method in the study of psychopathology. In the book before us are embraced the most important results of my comparative, individual-psychologic studies of the neuroses.As was the case in the theory of somatic inferiority, an empiric basis is made use of in comparative individual-psychology for the purpose of establishing a fictive standard of normality in order to enable one to measure and compare with it grades of deviation from it. In both of these scientific endeavors, the comparative method of study reckons with the origin of phenomena, dismisses from consideration the present and seeks to outline from them the future. This method of approach leads us to view the compulsion of evolution and the pathological elaboration as the result of a conflict which breaks forth in the organic sphere for the purpose of attaining equipoise, functional capability and adaptation; the same struggle in the psychic sphere is under the command of a fictitious idea of personality whose influence dominates the development of the neurotic character and symptoms. If in the organic sphere, "the individual develops into a unit mass in which all of the individual parts co-operate toward a common goal" (Virchow), if the various abilities and tendencies of the individual tend toward a purposefully directed, unit-personality, then we may look upon every single manifestation of life as if in its past, present and future there are contained traces of a dominating, guiding idea.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. overlooked classic By Randolph Severson This is an inexplicably overlooked classic. Published during the years that also saw the publication of Freud's Introductory Lectures, Jung's Symbols of Transformation and Husserl's Phenomenology, it ranks with and, indeed, may surpass them in its nuanced and comprehensive grasp of human nature. Adler's psychology, as represented in this masterpiece is so rich and subtle that it deserves the sort of ressourcement scholarship or 'return to Adler' that has so enriched other contemporary schools of thought. Adler himself turned to the past; he revered the 'canon', the great literary and philosophical works of the Western tradition. -- see, for example his essay on Dostoevski or his regular refernces and allusions to Nietzsche. Alexander Neuer, one of his most astute interpreters, said that Adler had created a modern psychology of what the Greeks called thymos. The novelist Manes Sperber said that Adler showed us both the "incredible insignificance" of and "incomparable grandeur of humanity." The truth of Sperber's judgment shines through in this irreplaceable book. Highly recommended.
