Publisher's Summary

Holocaust survivor Viktor E. Frankl is known as the founder of logotherapy, a mode of psychotherapy based on human's motivation to search for meaning in his life. The author discusses his ideas in the context of other prominent psychotherapies and describes the techniques he uses with his patients to combat the "existential vacuum".

Originally published in 1969 and compiling Frankl's speeches on logotherapy, The Will to Meaning is regarded as a seminal work of meaning-centered therapy. This new and carefully adapted audio version is read from the 2014 print edition.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Too abstract academic almost arrogant in its language

I was recommended this book. Many people obviously rate it highly but I found it a long and at times disorganised ramble. I did not like the language. It was so academic and terms were rarely defined. I have a Masters and PhD in behavioural neuroscience and psychology and even I found it hard to listen to. I’ve read other books on this topic that were much easier to listen to, better organised, and relatable. I couldn’t finish it.
