Changing Course: New Directions for the Journey of Life

160 pages, 8.5" x 11", plastic-comb bound. My first Adler book (1988). 3 parts Changing-C-2.jpg (72905 bytes)plus 3 appendices outline Adlerian concepts and methods around the image of "life as a journey." This is the first edition, only a few copies left.

Price: $20

Five or more ordered at the same time and shipped to the same address: $80.

Shipped USPS media mail. Allow 2 weeks for delivery.

Also included on the back covers is a slightly out-of-date (but slightly revised a few years ago) "LifeCourse Analysis" of yours truly, as an example of how you can word your own summary of your life after completing Changing Course. Maybe more than you want to now about me, but oh well! (Update Alert!! It says I have 5 grandchildren...but now I have seven. On the plus side, my picture on the back cover has been updated...no more beard!)
