Man's Search for Meaning An Introduction to Logotherapy

Viktor E. Frankl, M.D., Ph.D., was professor of psychiatry and neurology at the University of Vienna Medical School, professor of logotherapy at the United States International University, and visiting clinical professor of psychiatry at Stanford University. He was the leader and originator of the school of logotherapy or existential analysis. He was also the author of 20 books that have been translated into 14 languages. The U.S. edition of Man's Search for Meaning had sold over one and a half million copies in it's first 15 years.

After three grim years at Auschwitz and other Nazi prisons, Dr. Frankl gained freedom only to learn that almost his entire family had been wiped out. But during, and indeed partly because of, the incredible suffering and degradation of those harrowing years, he developed his theory of logotherapy.
