Reviews
One of the ten most influential books in America. -Library of Congress/Book-of-the-Month Club "Survey of Lifetime Readers" "Viktor Frankl's timeless formula for survival. One of the classic psychiatric texts of our time, Man's Search for Meaning is a meditation on the irreducible gift of one's own counsel in the face of great suffering, as well as a reminder of the responsibility each of us owes in valuing the community of our humanity. There are few wiser, kinder, or more comforting challenges than Frankl's." -Patricia J. Williams, author of Seeing a Color-Blind Future: The Paradox of Race "Dr. Frankl's words have a profoundly honest ring, for they rest on experiences too deep for deception. . . . A gem of a dramatic narrative, focused upon the deepest of human problems." -Gordon W. Allport, from the Preface "An enduring work of survival literature." - The New York Times "[ 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 "One of the great books of our time." -Harold S. Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People "One of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought in the last fifty years." -Carl R. Rogers (1959)

Synopsis
A new gift edition of a modern classic, with supplemental photographs, speeches, letters, and essays Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl's memoir of life in Nazi death camps has riveted generations of readers. Based on Frankl's own experience and the stories of his patients, the book argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward. Man's Search for Meaning has become one of the most influential books of our times, selling over twelve million copies worldwide. With a foreword by Harold S. Kushner, Frankl's classic is presented here in an elegant new edition with endpapers, supplementary photographs, and several of Frankl's previously unpublished letters, speeches, and essays., The bestselling Holocaust memoir about finding purpose and strength in times of despair--selected as a Library of Congress "10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.
