5.0 out of 5 starsA great inspiration at this time of COVID19
Reviewed in Australia on 12 April 2020
It’s Easter 2020 and like so many others across the globe during the COVID19 pandemic I am locked away in my home trying to stay safe and keep others safe. Finding meaning in my isolation and separation from family and friends is probably one of the most important aspects to my mental wellbeing right now. Victor Frankl found meaning during his time in the death camps of Auschwitz and Dachau, surviving and ultimately thriving.
While I and my fellow companions around the globe may not all be faced with such challenges, Frankl’s work has helped me find great meaning and purpose in my life during these times of uncertainty and fear.

5.0 out of 5 stars Phenomenal Insight
Reviewed in Australia on 7 November 2019
Verified Purchase
The insight of the behaviours observed and personally experienced by Viktor as a survivor of the holocaust is truly thought provoking. It is a miracle that anyone managed to survive such exposure to horrific conditions.

Viktor's views and psychological assessments run deep from a raw place. His insights resonant with me. It was an humbling to read his book.

We are stronger than we realise.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books I've ever read
Reviewed in Australia on 24 May 2018

Truly one of the best books I've ever read!.

This is not a personal memoir or autobiography at all. The way Viktor Frankl explains his experience in the Holocaust is truly incredible as he talks about it from a purely physiological perspective.

I think this book is relevant to everyone in the world as the main message is that we cannot influence the negative things that happen in our life, however we can influence the way we react to them. Whilst I feel most people know this anyway, hearing it come from one of the most impressive doctors in history following his own shocking experience really brings home the message

4.0 out of 5 stars Theory brought to life
Reviewed in Australia on 7 April 2022
Verified Purchase
I studied psychology, and found it continually frustrating to learn about psychological theories in absence of real examples and applied context. This book fills that gap perfectly, despite the real example being one so horrific and unspeakable that it is at times deeply troubling to digest. Frankl is an optimist, and this shines through, in a compelling, thoughtful and convincing way. His observations on human nature and our reasons for being gave me hope, and even clarity on my own search for meaning.

5.0 out of 5 stars The importance of finding meaning
Reviewed in Australia on 6 June 2019
Verified Purchase
My wife loved this book and is lending it to her friends. I did notice recently a sports star referenced the author Victor Frankl on dealing with his major injuries.

A short description :
Frankl's is a Auschwitz survivor who has taken experiences of the Holocaust to help him (and maybe you) learn that even in the direst of circumstances we still search for meaning in life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book helps me understand more about human
Reviewed in Australia on 12 June 2022

The book itself is a bit small, actual size and thickness, but the content is worth the read. The depth of its analysis on human's reaction in suffering is mind opening. Help me understand more about human in suffering also gives me insights to support others. Great book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!!!
Reviewed in Australia on 8 February 2019

A book I'd be reading all over again. I heard this book when I was watching a motivational video in YouTube. I went to amazon and checked out if there's a copy. As soon as I started reading this book I couldn't stop turning the page. I would definitely recommend this book. My words are not enough to tell you how much I needed this book right now. It gave me a wider perspective on what's happening in my life. Purchase this book and you'll never regret.

5.0 out of 5 stars We can always strive for meaning

A short book that can be read over a few sessions. It really packs a punch in describing his experiences in concentration camps and how you can, despite the most difficult circumstances see a meaning in life. Excellent read
