Man's Search for Meaning
Man's Search for Meaning
by
Viktor E. Frankl
A prominent Viennese psychiarist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe
the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped (or didn't) with the experience.
He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave way their last piece of bread
who survived longest.
The author considers it as a proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability
to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances.
