Ebury Publishing / Books, Man's Search For Meaning: The classic tribute to hope from the Holocaust, Viktor E. Frankl

"Man's Search for Meaning" is a classic book by Viktor E. Frankl, originally published in German in 1946. The book chronicles Frankl's experiences as an inmate in several Nazi concentration camps during World War II and describes his psychotherapeutic method of finding meaning in all forms of existence, even the most brutal ones. The book is divided into two parts, the first detailing his experiences in the camps and the second outlining his theory of logotherapy, which posits that the primary motivational force in humans is a search for meaning. The book has been widely read and translated into numerous languages, and is considered a seminal work in the field of psychology and existential philosophy.
