First published in 1946, Man’s Search for Meaning is Viktor Frankl’s riveting account of his time in Nazi concentration camps. Despite facing the worst adversity, Frankl explores the human will to find purpose and strength in times of great despair.

Today, as new generations face new challenges and an ever more complex and un-certain world, Frankl’s classic work continúes to inspire us all to find significance in the very act of living, in spite of all obstacles.
