In this work, a Viennese psychiatrist tells his grim experiences in a German concentration camp which led him to logotherapy, an existential method of psychiatry. This work has riveted generations of readers with its descriptions of life in Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Between 1942 and 1945 the author, a psychiatrist labored in four different camps, including Auschwitz, while his parents, brother, and pregnant wife perished. Based on his own experience and the stories of his many patients, he argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose.

WendyRobyn: Both personal accounts by Holocaust survivors. I feel the tone is similar. Frankl's book goes on to explore psychological implications of his experiences.
Solo i consumatori della cultura - scrisse Gabriel Marcel nella prefazione all'edizione francese - potrebbero scambiare questo libro per un ulteriore e ormai tardiva testimonianza sui campi di concentramento. C' é molto di più: avendo vissuto personalmente l'estrema abiezione dei Lager, l'autore insegna che se vivere é sofferenza, sopravvivere é trovare il senso di questa sofferenza, E' questa l'esperienza che lo condusse alla scoperta della logoterapia, il trattamento psicoterapeutico che l'ha reso famoso in tutto il mondo. Di una facilità narrativa quasi insospettabile in uno psichiatra, il libro é stato tradotto in tutto il mondo ed é stato dichiarato per quattro volte libro dell'anno dalle università degli Stati Uniti.

He who has a Why to live for can bear almost any How
Life is not primarily a quest for pleasure, as Freud believed, or a quest for power, as Alfred Adler taught, but a quest for meaning.
Man's inner strangth may raise him about his outward fate
Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation. You cannot control what happens to you in life, but you can always control what you feel and do about what happens to you.
Life is meaningful and that we must learn to see life as meaningful despite our circumstances.
