Description |
Though an individual be powerless to alter the outward conditions of his existence, he can control his responses to those conditions. This is not merely the theoretical contention but the proven experience of Dr. Viktor E. Frankl, professor of psychiatry and neurology at the University of Vienna. With the insight distilled from three years of confinement in a Nazi concentration camp, Dr. Frankl brings to light Man's Search for Meaning. In this work Frankl plumbs the depths of human physical and mental anguish--anguish as acute perhaps as any to which 20th century man has been subjected. But most essentially, the work is an exploration, a probing of man's capacity to suffer and to endure. |
