Kushner) features new photos, end papers, and Frankls never-before-published speeches and letters.Hailed as "an enduring work of survival literature" by the New York Times, Viktor Frankls account of his time in the Nazi concentration camps—and his insights into our ability to find meaning despite great adversity—has offered solace and guidance to generations of readers since it was first published in 1946. This stunning hardcover gift edition features previously unpublished material—including letters, speeches, essays, and an 8-page photo insert—that reveal Frankls enduring lessons on perseverance and strength in even greater depth.At the heart of Frankls theory of logotherapy (from the Greek word for "meaning") is a conviction that the primary human drive is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but rather the discovery and pursuit of what the individual finds meaningful. Today, as new generations face new challenges and an ever more complex and uncertain world, Frankls classic work continues to inspire us all to find significance in the very act of living, in spite of all obstacles.With more than 16 million copies sold in over 50 languages, this timeless masterpiece is "one of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought" (Carl Rogers) and offers inspiration for coping with suffering and finding your purpose.
