Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. Reprint. Reprint. Brand new from publisher. An exceptional copy. 2006 Trade Paperback. xvi, 165 pp. Frankl's classic on evolving views of the human mind and personal identity. "This seminal book, which has been called 'one of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought' by Carl Rogers and 'one of the great books of our time' by Harold Kushner, has been translated into more than fifty languages and sold over sixteen million copies. 'An enduring work of survival literature,' according to the New York Times, Viktor Frankl's riveting account of his time in the Nazi concentration camps, and his insightful exploration of the human will to find meaning in spite of the worst adversity, has offered solace and guidance to generations of readers since it was first published in 1946. At the heart of Frankl's theory of logotherapy (from the Greek word for 'meaning') is a conviction that the primary human drive is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but rather the discovery and pursuit of what the individual finds meaningful. Today, as new generations face new challenges and an ever more complex and uncertain world, Frankl's classic work continues to inspire us all to find significance in the very act of living, in spite of all obstacles.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First American Edition. "Here is the personal narrative of a psychiatrist's experiences in a concentration camp.

In an About Very Good unclipped dust jacket with sunned spine panel, light foxing, and dampstaining (mainly visible on back panel and verso). A rare signed first US edition of the Holocaust memoir better known as Man's Search for Meaning. In October 1960 Viktor Frankl was in Detroit on one of his many lecture tours, delivering five lectures on five successive evenings at the Cathedral Church of St. Paul, beginning with "The Meaning of Life" on October 16, the date Charles Bruce Lee wrote his name in this book. The following night, when Frankl lectured on "The Meaning of Suffering," Lee obtained the renowned psychiatrist's signature. Frankl's writing would have had a particular poignancy for Lee, a Black biologist with painful memories of his wartime service as an intelligence clerk in the segregated Army. "My first night on a Jim Crow train car was like Schindler's List," he later said in an interview with Alan Govenar. "We rode in wooden cars behind the engine with the upper windows open. The coal dust blew in. I was in a car that was built to hold eighty people, but there must have been over one hundred fifty men jammed into it." Lee grew up in Buffalo, New York, earned a bachelor's degree from the Tuskegee Institute, and finished up with a Ph.D in malacology, the study of invertebrate zoology, from the University of Michigan. He worked for the government for 34 years, spending ten years as the chief of microbiology of the Detroit Arsenal and directing research on the fungal deterioration of ordnance materials. Like Viktor Frankl, he lived past the age of 90. An interesting association between two men who successfully overcame considerable adversity. Signed.…
