Viktor Frankl - Recollections [J0003]

1997 - HCDJ Nice clean condition. An autobiography of the eminent psychiatrist and philosopher.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "This was a short autobiography. I read it in preparation for reading his book Man's search for meaning. This book touched on a variety of moments in Viktor Frankl's life."; "I'm always fascinated by the stories of holocaust survivors. Frankl, a genius psychiatrist whose life in Vienna was disrupted by the events of WWII, had a particularly intriguing life, finding meaning even after losing his parents, his brother and his newlywed wife to the concentration camps. He then made it his mission to help others find meaning for their own lives. He doesn't base himself on anything very solid to help others do so, being Jewish and having dappled in atheism and then a blend of things."; "A short autobiography of one of my favorit writers. Living as a jewish intellectual (and the founder of logotherapy) in 1930's 1940's (Nazi occupied) Austria, he gives a fascinating view on the situation he found himself in."
