Yes to Life by Viktor E Frankl
Find hope even in these dark times with this rediscovered masterpiece, a companion to his international bestseller Man's Search for Meaning.Eleven months after he was liberated from the Nazi concentration camps, Viktor E. Frankl held a series of public lectures in Vienna. The psychiatrist, who would soon become world famous, explained his central thoughts on meaning, resilience, and the importance of embracing life even in the face of great adversity.
Published here for the very first time in English, Frankl's words resonate as strongly today--as the world faces a coronavirus pandemic, social isolation, and great economic uncertainty--as they did in 1946. He offers an insightful exploration of the maxim "Live as if you were living for the second time," and he unfolds his basic conviction that every crisis contains opportunity. Despite the unspeakable horrors of the camps, Frankl learned from the strength of his fellow inmates that it is always possible to "say yes to life"--a profound and timeless lesson for us all.
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.
