Adler, Alfred ; Philip Mairet — Problems of Neurosis ; with a Prefatory Essay

New York, NY, Cosmopolitan Book Corp, 1930. Hardcover. Red boards with yellow/gold text on cover and spine. 244 pp. Chiefly text. "The science of the Individual Psychology teaches us that the leit-motif of all neurosis and conflict is a sense of discouragement and inferiority. But the keynote of the practice of Individual Psychology is that 'benevolent comradeship' which Adler tells us should characterize the attitude of the physician towards his patient. The sincerity of this utterance, and its full significance, can hardly be better known than by the Pupil, who has been asked, by the Teacher, to write some foreword to the latter's own work. Perhaps in such case the Pupil may be thought to fulfil his duty best in attempting to set out something he has learned, which others may wish to know.
