1870 – 1937
Austrian

Psychiatrist, member of Freud's inner circle, then rebel against Freud. His idea of the "inferiority complex," became deeply embedded in popular culture. For a time, especially in the 1950's, almost any degree of ambition or effort was popularly dismissed by some as evidence of a feeling of inferiority.
