The publishers of this book say that Adler was 'one of the greatest psychologists of his own or any previous age', and this sentence gives the key-note to the tone of the whole book. Mrs. Orgler is perhaps Adler's most devoted pupil and she writes throughout in superlative language of the greatness of his qualities and achievements. The book is evidently intended as a pious memorial to her master and it would be out of place to review it in any critical spirit. She has performed her work admirably and has omitted nothing that could be said in favour or praise of Adler. We welcome the fact that very little reference is made to either Freud or psycho-analysis and can confirm her statement that Adler's relationship with psycho-analysis in his early days was always of an extremely superficial order. It would have been much better both for Adler's work and for psycho-analysis if this temporary association, which has led to so much confusion and unfairness, had never existed.
