DESCRIPTION

Subtitle: An Introduction to Logotherapy

Man’s Search for Meaning is the chilling yet inspirational story of Viktor Frankl’s struggle to hold on to hope during the unspeakable horrors of his years as a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps. Frankl’s training as a psychiatrist informed every waking moment of his ordeal and lent him a remarkable perspective on the psychology of survival. As a result of these experiences, Dr. Frankl developed a revolutionary approach to psychotherapy known as logotherapy. At the core of his theory is the belief that man’s primary motivational force is his search for meaning. Frankl’s assertion that “the will to meaning” is the basic motivation for human life has forever changed the way we understand our humanity in the face of suffering.

This revised and updated version includes a new postscript: “The Case for a Tragic Optimism.”



REVIEWS

“If you read but one book this year, Dr. Frankl’s book should be that one.”—Los Angeles Times

“An enduring work of survival literature.”—New York Times

“Perhaps the most significant thinking since Freud and Adler. Unconditional faith in an unconditional meaning is Dr. Frankl’s message to the reader.”—American Journal of Psychiatry

“[A] fascinating, sophisticated, and very human book….Frankl’s personal and professional discourses merge into a style of tremendous power.”—Amazon.com Review

“Much like a first aid kit, this recording has the potential to save lives….This classic carefully read by Simon Vance, is a vital aid to the troubled of all ages.” —Library Journal
