This book is a dialogue on Alfred Adler’s philosophy. He rejects the idea that the past determines our behavior.
The reclusive friend example is pointed. Freud would dig into childhood. But if you break your leg, the doctor focuses on fixing it, not how it broke.
Adler would say the recluse’s anxiety serves the purpose of avoiding people. The fix is recognizing that goal, questioning it, and changing it.
