Our present and our past are manifestly intertwined. Memories are not identical simulations of the past, but are stories shaped by our current perspectives of others, the world, and ourselves. As a result, the gathering of early recollections can be used as a projective technique that indicates our strengths, goals, lines of movement, fears, and a host of other relevant psychological data. Early Recollections are a quick, accurate, and cost-effective personality assessment demonstrated to have similar reliability and validity to other personality measures. Both a comprehensive and accessible text, Early Recollections: Interpretative Method and Application presents a constructivist approach and systematic development of early recollection theory. Mosak and Di Pietro invite students to think and actively engage in problem solving rather than merely read for content. Supported by step-by-step examples, this book also offers a perspective suitable for application by Adlerian practitioners, non-Adlerian clinicians, and all other mental health professionals and students seeking a new framework for evaluating personality.

First published in 1987. What distinguishes people from other animals is said to be people's ability to laugh. Much of the literature treats humor as a normal but pathological phenomenon. This volume first describes a theory which not only views humor as nonpathological, but as contributing to the evolution of social interest. It then describes the structure of the joke and proceeds to elaborate the forms and goals humor takes in psychotherapy.
This manual retains Adler's concept that the life style of any individual is a singular pattern of thinking, feeling, and acting that is unique to that individual and represents the context in which all specific manifestations must be considered. Providing a means for assessing the life style and using the information in therapy, it explains what life style is, elements of the family constellation and its interpretation, early recollections and their interpretations, and means for obtaining data.
