Man's search for meaning
Name : Man's Search for Meaning Author : Viktor E. Frankl Year of Publication : 1946 Genre : Non - Fiction, History , Philosophy Rating : ***** (5 stars out of 5) The author combines experience with erudition to churn out a classic which has impacted lives since its publication in 1946. Anyone who is coming to terms with trouble in life can take lessons from the author who faced death in a Nazi concentration camp and survived by choosing to be "worthy of his suffering". The second part of the book is a masterclass on Logotherapy, the therapeutic doctrine propounded by Frankl. To write and breathe positivity after going through hell is remarkable but as the author says " Man is that being who invented the gas chambers of Auschwitz; however,he is also that being who entered those gas chambers upright, with the Lord's Prayer on his lips".
