I need time to think about this before I rate it.
There are some good ideas and philosophies in the book. I was less interested in the teaching aspects discussed, hence my lower rating.

I really enjoyed the Courage to be Disliked and recommended it to many people. I was excited to see this next one.
For the record, you really need to have read the first book to get this one. While there is some recap, this book builds on the last one as the student returns to the teacher 3 years later. The student is now a teacher and is finding the lessons of the first book impractical in his new role.
The dialog begins again.
I enjoy books which challenge me to growth and these two did just that. While I wouldn’t recommend this to everyone, if you got the first book and liked that style and agreed with the lessons taught, this is a great continuation. If this is your first one out of order, I wonder if it would make much sense?
I liked it a lot and will carry the lessons.

I liked the concepts being covered but the “young man” was insufferable and way too scripted.

Challenging but stick with it and it becomes well worth the effort.

Didn't like this companion book/sequel as much as To Be Disliked. Of course there were some valuable insights in Adlerian psychology, mainly about the part community plays within your own experience of life and growth as a person, but I wouldn't be surprised if many people will find these concepts hard to grasp. Like what is said in the final chapter, Adlerian psychology borders more towards philosophy than psychology which can turn a lot of people away.
