Summary
A prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war， Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped （or didn't） with the experience。 He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances。 The sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone。 Only those who allowed their inner hold on their moral and spiritual selves to subside eventually fell victim to the camp's degenerating influence - while those who made a victory of those experiences turned them into an inner triumph。 Frankl came to believe man's deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose。
This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living。

I wish I read this one instead of listening！ There were parts I wanted to go back and re-read just to think through the concept he was talking about。

I loved the first part。 However， part two was too psychological for me: he was explaining about his school of therapy。

Her ne kadar acı yaşasan da， ne denli şu hayattan haz duysan da; hayatında bir amacın， bir anlamın var olduğunu bilerek yaşayamamak ne kadar komiktir oysaki。 Viktor buna ithafen， logoterapiyi var ediyor。 Her hayatta bir anlamın var olduğunu， sadece bu anlama yönelmemiz gerektiğini savunuyor。

“Нашето поколение е реалистично， защото стигнахме до познание за човека такъв， какъвто той наистина е。 В края на краищата човек е онова същество， което изобрети газовите камери на Освиенцим; ала той е също и онова създание， което влизаше в газовите камери изправено， с Божията молитва или с Шема Израел на уста。”Настолно четиво。 Темата е тежка， но ти дава много。 Страданието съвсем не е необходимо， за да се намери смисъл， но смисълът е възможен въпреки страданието， когато то е неизбежно。

I really loved this book。 It was really impactful and made me reevaluate my own outlook on life。 I really appreciated the fact that he used the concentration camps as an example for his views on this topic but never got too gruesome or relied on shock or horror to get his point across。 He just gave his side of the story and examined what he saw while there。 He went over how people responded to the circumstances they were in and brought in some insight into what he considered to be a reason worth I really loved this book。 It was really impactful and made me reevaluate my own outlook on life。 I really appreciated the fact that he used the concentration camps as an example for his views on this topic but never got too gruesome or relied on shock or horror to get his point across。 He just gave his side of the story and examined what he saw while there。 He went over how people responded to the circumstances they were in and brought in some insight into what he considered to be a reason worth living。 Why to go on and to struggle。 。。。more

_ listened to a summary of it as an audiobook _ A beautifully devastating book that covers the beauty of life in-spite of its hardships， particularly during the Auschwitz period。 Would definitely buy this as a hard copy and read it in its entirety。

A strange reading experience。 At first， the first part seemed interesting， though there are major problems there in terms of it being a memoir/autobiography。 Upon reflection， I despise almost everything about this book。

Worth reading if you are studying psychology or philosophy。 I found the author's behavior in the book to be contradictory。 Yoga and Logotherapy have a lot in common， but Yoga is thousands of years older。 Worth reading if you are studying psychology or philosophy。 I found the author's behavior in the book to be contradictory。 Yoga and Logotherapy have a lot in common， but Yoga is thousands of years older。 。。。more

Descrevendo e analisando muitos dos horrores vividos nos campos de concentração de Auschwitz， Frankl mostra-nos neste livro que mesmo nas piores situações é possível encontrar a esperança。“（…） tudo pode ser tirado a um homem， menos uma coisa: a última das liberdades humanas - a possibilidade de escolhermos a nossa atitude em quaisquer circunstâncias， de escolhermos a nossa maneira de fazer as coisas。”

La un moment dat， Frank spunea că „E păcat că mulţi nu vor şti ce să facă cu surplusul lor de timp liber。” （p。 73）。 Fraza mi-a atras atenția întrucât， deși a fost scrisă în 1984， redă întocmai senzația de vid existențial în care par să se regăsească unele persoane în această perioadă de izolare la domiciliu。 Private de toate distragerile， nu mai știu ce să facă și cum să se comporte cu ele însele。 Asta remarca și autorul， chiar dacă era vorba despre o altă împrejurare。 Continuarea pe:https://psy La un moment dat， Frank spunea că „E păcat că mulţi nu vor şti ce să facă cu surplusul lor de timp liber。” （p。 73）。 Fraza mi-a atras atenția întrucât， deși a fost scrisă în 1984， redă întocmai senzația de vid existențial în care par să se regăsească unele persoane în această perioadă de izolare la domiciliu。 Private de toate distragerile， nu mai știu ce să facă și cum să se comporte cu ele însele。 Asta remarca și autorul， chiar dacă era vorba despre o altă împrejurare。 Continuarea pe:https://psycholifeblog。wordpress。com/。。。 。。。more

One of the important book standing against the relatively more popular and saught after school of philosophy i。e。 Existentialism， dealing with human instincts， human behavior， his brain and its responses and most importantly man's ever lasting quest for life's meaning。 One of the important book standing against the relatively more popular and saught after school of philosophy i。e。 Existentialism， dealing with human instincts， human behavior， his brain and its responses and most importantly man's ever lasting quest for life's meaning。 。。。more

2/3 gelezen… niet mijn boek。 Het zou geen boek zijn over zaken waar al zoveel over geschreven is， maar dat is het wel。 Alleen vind ik het hier niet zo goed in beschreven。 Ben afgehaakt。 Dus ik kan geen oordeel geven over totaal。 Het tweede deel is weer zo anders van toon（want wetenschappelijk？） dat het bijna door 2 personen vertelt is。
