Rudolf Dreikurs
Rudolf Dreikurs (1897-1972) was a student and colleague of Alfred Adler, who believed that "all behavior has a purpose." Dreikurs simplified many of Adler's ideas for use by parents and teachers. In 1964, along with a nurse named Vicki Soltz, he wrote Children: The Challenge, and in 1968, he and Loren Grey wrote A Parent's Guide to Child Discipline.

(I know this is about Adler rather than Dreikurs, but I was amazed to find out that Loren Grey, one of Dreikurs’ co-authors, is the son of the western novelist Zane Grey, and recently published this book.)
