Alfred Adler, a Portrait from Life

Phyllis Bottome's book is based on inspired friendship. Adler himself urged her to undertake this portrait -- a portrait that shines with understanding, swift sympathy and rare brilliance. She has given us the definition of the man and the scientist that is a magnificent picture of an individual with the greatest genius of all -- the genius for living wholly, fully, warmly and wittily.
