(a) See the discussion of inferiority and superiority complexes in the section on psychopathology in Chapter 4. (b) See the discussion of the structure of personality in Chapter 4. (c) See the discussion of moving away from and toward people in Chapter 5. (d) See the discussion of mechanisms of escape and defense in Chapter 6.

May does devote more emphasis to gaining superiority through explicit violence than does Adler; he is somewhat more specifi c about the parental behaviors that cause neurosis than is Horney; and he differs from Fromm by stressing our dread of nonbeing, rather than our need to escape from the frightening choices that we must make because our behavior is not preordained by innate instincts. But I don’t regard these as major differences.
