The author presents some reasons for the current renaissance of interest in Adlerian psychology. He deals mainly with Adler's relationship to Freud, with Adlerian terms that have now achieved a new significance, with the consensual validation of Adler's theories by other psychologists, and with the relevance of Adler's psychology to current social movements.
