A Book Review of “The Courage to Be Disliked” An Introduction to Adlerian Psychology Through a Japanese Philosophical Lens


As one of the inspirations for this project, The Courage to be Disliked, is a book that had an impression on me last year. You must excuse the title, it in no way attempts to make you be a dislikable person, but it does instil with you something great; courage. Truthfully this isn’t really a self help book, rather it’s a cunning ploy to introduce people to Adlerian Psychology under the lens of Japanese philosophy. Yes, it does offer plenty of advice on how to see yourself and the world and will certainly give you insights into making your life better. This book is a great read, fun and interesting, I would recommend everyone give it a shot.
