嫌われる勇気

Ichirō Kishimi, Fumitake Koga

2013

This book, framed as a dialogue between a philosopher and a youth, explores Adlerian psychology to challenge conventional notions of happiness and freedom. It argues that individuals possess the power to determine their own lives and find fulfillment not by seeking approval, but by embracing self-acceptance and understanding that all problems stem from interpersonal relationships. Through this lens, the text offers a framework for personal growth and a reevaluation of how we approach our interactions and our pursuit of a meaningful existence.
