This volume presents the major papers of Dr. Viktor E. Frankl, internationally famous psychiatrist, author of Man's Search for Meaning, and originator of logotherapy - an existential psychotherapy stressing man's freedom to transcend suffering and find meaning in his life.
Drawing on his broad clinical background and on his personal experiences as a prisoner in the concentration camps of Dachau and Auschwitz, Dr. Frankl offers man a vital and humanistic outlook for his daily experiences-his joys and his suffering, his guilt and his aspirations. A philosophy reflecting an enlightened concern for modern man, logotherapy has been hailed as the Third Viennese School of Psychotherapy, the most significant contribution to psychoanalysis since the work of Freud and Adler.
