Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E Frankl

The bestselling Holocaust memoir about finding purpose and strength in times of despair--selected as a Library of Congress 10 Most Influential Books in America

This stunning gift edition of one of the great books of our time (Harold S. Kushner) features new photos, end papers, and Frankl's never-before-published speeches and letters.

Hailed as an enduring work of survival literature by the New York Times, Viktor Frankl's account of his time in the Nazi concentration camps--and his insights into our ability to find meaning despite great adversity--has offered solace and guidance to generations of readers since it was first published in 1946. This stunning hardcover gift edition features previously unpublished material--including letters, speeches, essays, and an 8-page photo insert--that reveal Frankl's enduring lessons on perseverance and strength in even greater depth.

At the heart of Frankl's theory of logotherapy (from the Greek word for meaning) is a conviction that the primary human drive is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but rather the discovery and pursuit of what the individual finds meaningful. Today, as new generations face new challenges and an ever more complex and uncertain world, Frankl's classic work continues to inspire us all to find significance in the very act of living, in spite of all obstacles.

With more than 16 million copies sold in over 50 languages, this timeless masterpiece is one of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought (Carl Rogers) and offers inspiration for coping with suffering and finding your purpose.

Frankl was an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist, as well as a Holocaust survivor, who lived from 1905 to 1997. Logotherapy and existential analysis were both founded by him. He wrote over thirty books, lectured and led seminars all over the world, and was awarded twenty-nine honorary doctorates.
