Description: Viktor E. Frankl, M.D., Ph.D., distinguished professor of logotherapy at the United States International University, and visiting clinical professor of psychiatry at Stanford University, is the leader and originator of the school of logotherapy or existential analysis. He is also the author of 27 books that have been translated into 18 languages, including Japanese and Chinese.

After three grim y ears at Auschwitz and other Nazi prisons, Dr. Frankl gained freedom only to learn that almost his entire family had been wiped out. But during, and indeed partly because of, the incredible suffering and degradation of those harrowing years, he developed his theory of logotherapy.

In his preface to this book, Harvard University's Grodon W. Allport calls it "an introduction to the most significant psychological movement in our day."

"...perhaps the most significant thinking since Freud and Adler."
