Printing is far clearer in this version than the Scholar Select series, but it's paperback and not hardcover. ( ) A classic work of individual psychology, a bit outdated, but not as much as you would think. But Adler has got to be one of the guys that the term "psychobabble" was coined for. He over-explains things in hyper detail that I think most people who have studied psychology and even those that haven't understand quite readily in far fewer words. It gives me the impression that Adler's verbosity was a symptom of him trying to compensate for his own feelings of academic inferiority in relation to Freud which he had parted ways with and had become a competing figure in the profession of psychoanalysis at the time. Also, these scholar select re-prints often have text that is too small (like this one) or text that is blurry (not this one). Other printings are advised. no reviews | add a review
