Produktbeschreibung
A book for finding purpose and strength in times of great despair, the international best-seller is still just as relevant today as when it was first published.

This is a book I reread a lot . . . it gives me hope . . . it gives me a sense of strength.
Anderson Cooper, Anderson Cooper 360/CNN

This seminal book, which has been called one of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought by Carl Rogers and one of the great books of our time by Harold Kushner, has been translated into more than fifty languages and sold over sixteen million copies. An enduring work of survival literature, according to the New York Times, Viktor Frankl s riveting account of his time in the Nazi concentration camps, and his insightful exploration of the human will to find meaning in spite of the worst adversity, has offered solace and guidance to generations of readers since it was first published in 1946. 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.

A must-read companion to this classic work, a new, never-before-published work by Frankl entitled Yes to Life: In Spite of Everything, is now available in English.

"[Man's Search for Meaning] might well be prescribed for everyone who would understand our time." Journal of Individual Psychology

"An inspiring document of an amazing man who was able to garner some good from an experience so abysmally bad Highly recommended." Library Journal

This is a book I try to read every couple of years. It s one of the most inspirational books ever written. What is the meaning of life? What do you have when you think you have nothing? Amazing and heartbreaking stories. This is a book that should be in everyone s library.
