Striving To Make Better Choices Despite The Worst Of Circumstances!!!

Date of Review:  Aug 30, 2001
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this book for anyone wanting to know what makes people tick, even in the worst of circumstances, and how to make better choices.
Review: "Man's Search For Meaning" discusses the basic human need for meaning in our lives. This is what Frankl calls logotherapy. In his Preface, Frankl explains how he originally wanted this book (written in 1945) to be published anonymously. His desire...

Date of Review:  Dec 20, 1999
Review: Victor Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning" along with Robert Pirsig's "Zen & The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" are two of the most profound books on the human experience that I've ever read. Here, Dr. Frankl (a Psychiatrist) recounts his own...

He Who Has a Why to Live. . .

Date of Review:  Jun 21, 2001
The Bottom Line: A book that belongs in every college curriculum. It is poignant and inspiring in spite the stark subject matter.
Review: I first encountered this book seventeen years ago. I was taking a Psychology and Literature course and this was part of the curriculum. The professor was a big fan of Viktor Frankl. He felt this would be powerful reading for the class.
