First Edition
First printing. Rare first English-language edition of Frankl's classic presentation of logotherapy, now best known by its later title, MAN'S SEARCH FOR MEANING. Originally published in German in 1946, FROM DEATH-CAMP TO EXISTENTIALISM appeared in English translation only at the end of the 1950s. Frankl's book, one of the most influential texts of the 20th century and one of the most widely read personal narratives of the Holocaust, argues for the primacy of meaning as the animating drive in human psychology, identifying the search for meaning as the only adequate response to suffering, death, and existential frustration. Indeed, in the book is best known in English by its title in later editions: MAN'S SEARCH FOR MEANING. This first English edition is scarce, especially in collectible condition. A handsome first edition of the book the Library of Congress called one of "the ten most influential books in the United States." 8'' x 5.25''. Original red cloth. In original unclipped ($3.00) dust jacket. 111, [1] pages. Translated by Ilse Lasch. Preface by Gordon W. Allport. Spine a bit sunned, chip at head. Minor edgewear, rubbing. Book has a bit of shelfwear at the foot of the spine. Else clear, bright, and sharp. Near fine in a very good jacket.

First Edition
First edition in English of Frankl's classic work, which was later titled Man's Search For Meaning in 1962. Octavo, original cloth. Near fine in a very good dust jacket with some tears and wear, small name to the front free endpaper. Translated by Ilse Lasch. Preface by Gordon Allport. First editions are uncommon. Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl's memoir has riveted generations of readers with its descriptions of life in Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Between 1942 and 1945 Frankl labored in four different camps, including Auschwitz, while his parents, brother, and pregnant wife perished. Based on his own experience and the experiences of others he treated later in his practice, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose. Frankl's theory-known as logotherapy, from the Greek word logos ("meaning")-holds that our primary drive in life is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but the discovery and pursuit of what we personally find meaningful. At the time of Frankl's death, Man's Search for Meaning had sold more than 10 million copies in twenty-four languages. A 1991 reader survey for the Library of Congress that asked readers to name a "book that made a difference in your life" found Man's Search for Meaning among the ten most influential books in America. "An enduring work of survival literature" (New York Times).
