Meaning
On finding a why even in the hardest places.
Man's Search for Meaning · by Viktor Frankl
A psychiatrist who survived the concentration camps writes the most honest book about what we live for.
Why read it
Frankl doesn't theorize from a comfortable chair: he writes from the worst that can happen to a human being. His central observation is that those who survived weren't the strongest, but the ones who held on to a meaning — something to keep going for.
