'Viktor Frankl gives us the gift of looking at everything in life as an opportunity' Edith Eger, bestselling author of The Choice

Rediscovered masterpiece by the 16 million copy bestselling author of Man’s Search For Meaning

Just months after his liberation from Auschwitz renowned psychiatrist Viktor E. Frankl delivered a series of talks revealing the foundations of his life-affirming philosophy. The psychologist, who would soon become world famous, explained his central thoughts on meaning, resilience and his conviction that every crisis contains opportunity.

Published here for the very first time in English, Frankl's words resonate as strongly today as they did in 1946. Despite the unspeakable horrors in the camp, Frankl learnt from his fellow inmates that it is always possible to say ‘yes to life’ – a profound and timeless lesson for us all.

With a foreword by Daniel Goleman.

I found myself wanting more of this wisdom. This short series of lectures delivered only 9 months after Victor E Frankl ‘s liberation from Buchenwald, is a master class in existential humanism.He was still making sense of his horrendous experience, but conveys how humans may manage to endure terrible suffering. He who has why to live can endure almost any how.

A short narrative of great depth

it was so illuminating to hear Frankls philosophy of life and worth after all he's seen and experienced in the concentration camp. in particular, his view that people have worth beyond their ability to work was refreshing.

Profound Vantage point

a brilliant summary/ reminder of Frankl's legacy
