Viktor E. Frankl, M.D., Ph.D., is professor of psychiatry and neurology at the University of Vienna Medical School, professor of logotherapy at the United States International University, and visiting clinical professor of psychiatry at Stanford University. He is the leader and originator of the school of logotherapy or existential analysis. He is also the author of 20 books that have been translated into 14 languages, including Japanese and Chinese. The U.S. edition of Man's Search for Meaning has sold over one and a half million copies. After three grim years at Auschwitz and other Nazi prisons, Dr. Frankl gained freedom only to learn that almost his entire family had been wiped out. But during, and indeed partly because of, the incredible suffering and degradation of those harrowing years, he developed his theory of logotherapy. In his preface to this book. Harvard University's Gordon W. Allport calls it "an introduction to the most significant psychological movement of our day." "...perhaps the most significant thinking since Freud and Adler. Unconditional faith in an unconditional meaning is Dr. Frankl's message to the reader." -The American Journal of Psychiatry
