Man's Search for Ultimate Meaning Audiobook

" This is a wonderful book. It is obviously pretty sad considering it is about surviving a concentration camp, but it focuses more on the psychological effects and how to make some sense out of what happened. It was very moving. "

" One of the best books I've ever read. This book is a "game changer"; I think it's impossible to read this book and not be profoundly moved by it. "

" Meaning: "Turn suffering towards human achievement. Guilt can be used to change for the better. Transitoriness of life can be used as an incentive to take responsibility." Great book! "

" I thought this was the original Man's search for meaning. To my disappointment, it was a sequel to the book that only teaches about logo-therapy. So unless you are really into psychology and want to do your own personal analysis or this is for a required study, it's not very enjoyable to read. "

" the M"OST important read of a lifetime! "

" Great book, but too much epistemology like unto Four Loves. "

" Happiness can't be pursued, it only ensues. A beautiful book. "

" Very technical language and immersed in psychology, but overall a great insight into life from a Holocaust survivor. "

" Would like to re-read this one. "

" Amazing book! Had to make a report about this, and i absolutely enjoyed it! "

" I expected this book to be depressing due to the subject nature, and I was pleased to discover I was wrong. It was required reading for a college course, and I dreaded having to learn what this man went through. Although his experience was unimaginable, the book truly is about the human spirit. "

" This should be required reading for victims of ...anything "

" One of my all time favorites! "

" Pretty important book here. The author was a psychiatrist who was imprisoned at Aushwitz and Dachau, and he not only lived to tell the tale but formulated an existentialist strategy for life, whioh he carried forward after he was released. "

" This book was written for a scholar of human behavior, not a casual reader. I thoroughly enjoyed the last few pages that speak more to the lay reader. Frankl's poignant ideas are well thought out. My rating is based on the last few pages. "

" aggregation of cliches "

" Stunning book, it has changed my perception on life. Can recommend this book to anyone and everyone, simply amazing. "

" Some of my favorite inspirational quotes come from this book "

" Life changing and humbling. (like all of his books) "

" great takedown of psychological determinism "

" One of my top five favorite books. "

" READ AGAIN AND AGAIN! "

" This book was so interesting to read. Viktor talks about his experiences in concentration camps in psychological terms. It has changed my view on life. I only give it 4 stars because at times the book was hard for me to read because of his terminology. "

" Profound. While I would not say that it changed my fundamental outlook on life, meaning, or suffering, I would say that it corrected my perspective back towards an outlook that I've always had. A book that I will almost certainly read again. "

" This book changed my outlook on life when I was 18 and going through some hard times and helped put my life in perspective. I recommend to anyone who questions their life, morals and values. "

" I learned a lot from this book. Victor Frankl's account of life in the concentration camp is heart-rending and deeply insightful. I recommend it to anyone. "

" Interesting combination of memoir and standoffish observation of horrific events. Really appreciated some of the insights and conclusions but sort of an odd read overall. "

" For me, Frankel's book is an exceptionally lucid, accessible exploration of existential philosophy--and this, in the setting of a Nazi concentration camp. Required reading for anyone leading an examined life. "

" I have no words...This book put a lot in perspective for me. Everyone should read it. "

" Written while in a Nazi concentration camp this book beautifully explains our constant search for meaning. "

" I actually read this book a few years ago. This is another book I plan to re-read. Excellent book. "

" THIS BOOK HELPED ME WITH FORGIVING THOSE WHO HURT ME. "

" Dom: Second time I have read this book. Re-read it this time because it came up in a psych class I am taking. I think I appreciated it a lot more from this new perspective. "

" Reread this for the first time since college. The most compelling part, of course, is how Dr. Frankl survived the Nazis. However, the logotherapy section is also interesting. Perhaps it is better suited for a more serious student of psychology, but I appreciated what Frankl was trying to convey. "
