Man's Search For Meaning Internationally renowned psychiatrist Viktor E. Frankl speaks of the horrors he experienced during years in the Nazi death camps and of the key lessons he learned as a result: "everything can be taken from man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any set of given circumstances, to choose one's own way." He also learned that a person with meaning and purpose in their life had a greater determination and reason to live. From his insights he developed a revolutionary approach to psychotherapy known as logotherapy. At the core of this theory is the belief that a man's primary motivational force is his search for meaning. This book can be read and appreciated on many levels; it is educational, insightful, thought provoking and inspirational.
