Review:
"Perhaps the most significant thinking since Freud and Adler."--The American Journal of Psychiatry "Frankl is one of the most famous and gifted of all psychiatrists... The incredible attempts to dehumanize man at Auschwitz and Dachau led Frankl to commence the humanization of psychiatry through logotherapy. Frankl is a professional who possesses the rare ability to write in a layman's language."--Dr. Gerald F. Kreyche, professor emeritus at DePaul University "I regard this book as one of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought in the last fifty years."--Dr. Carl Rogers, author of Client-Centered Therapy "Dr. Frankl's contribution to psychotherapy has been great. He is perhaps the only non-behaviorist to have contributed a method to behavior therapy. The modesty with which he has put forward his important work has been remarkable."--Dr. Joseph Wolpe, author of The Practice of Behavioral Therapy

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. After witnessing the horrors of concentration camps, Viktor Frankl converted his experience into what is known as logotherapy. Unlike Freud's "will to pleasure" and Adler's "will to power", Frankl believes in the will to meaning. Logotherapy states that people are motivated by the search for meaning in life, and by presenting readers with three methodical concepts, Frankl shows how we can all reinvigorate our experiences and tie them to will and power. Originally published by Plume in 1988, The Will to Meaning is a compilation of Frankl's speeches on logotherapy.From the author ofMan's Search for Meaning, one of the most influential works of psychiatric literature since Freud.Holocaust survivor Viktor E. Frankl is known as the founder of logotherapy, a mode of psychotherapy based on man's motivation to search for meaning in his life. The author discusses his ideas in the context of other prominent psychotherapies and describes the techniques he uses with his patients to combat the "existential vacuum."Originally published in 1969 and compiling Frankl's speeches on logotherapy, The Will to Meaning is regarded as a seminal work of meaning-centered therapy. This new and carefully re-edited version is the first since 1988. Explains the fundamentals of logotherapy, describes its use as a treatment for neuroses, and discusses the feelings of emptiness found in modern existence.
