Man's Search for Meaning
O knjizi
Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl's memoir has riveted generations of readers with its descriptions of life in Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Based on his own experience and the stories of his patients, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose.

Man's Search for Meaning has become one of the most influential books in America; it continues to inspire us all to find significance in the very act of living
