#30 - The Courage to be Disliked by Fumitake Koga and Ichiro Kishimi

from Mindful Reading · host James de Klerk and Peter Banda

A discussion on the book The Courage to be Disliked by Fumitake Koga and Ichiro KishimiThe Courage to be Disliked by Fumitake Koga and Ichiro Kishimi, is written as a Greek style dialog between a young man and a philosopher. The young man, dissatisfied with life, went to the philosopher to learn how, or even if, he could ever be happy. Over the course of five nights the philosopher walks the young man through the philosophy of Alfred Adler, a present-future goal oriented philosophy, referred to as teleology, and contrasts it with Sigmund Freud's philosophy, which he says is past oriented, referred to as aetiology.Hosted by Peter Banda & James de Klerk This is a public episode.
