Originally published in 1928, this book was an attempt to acquaint the general public with the fundamentals of Individual Psychology. It serves as a demonstration of the practical application of these principles to the conduct of everyday relationships and the organisation of our personal life. Based upon a year’s lectures to audiences at the People’s Institute in Vienna, the purpose of the book was to point out how the mistaken behaviour of the individual affects harmony in our social and communal life.
