Man’s Search for Meaning was first published in 1946. Victor Frankl was a leading psychologist in Vienna when he was arrested for being a Jew all over the Nazi regime. He survived holocaust and used his experiences to write this book. He propounded the theory that it is Man’s constant search for meaning that allows him to continue to exist even the most brutal, the most degrading situations in his life.

He said there are only two races in the world, the decent and indecent. They’ll maintain their innate beliefs, no matter which side they are on. The decent ones will try to help the fellow human beings and the indecent ones will be selfish and serve themselves at the cost to the others.

Frankl’s views were different from those of the leading psychologist of his times, Freud and Adler. His research was intensely personal and unique. His findings of human behaviour were based on the most extenuating circumstances that humans face. He suffered holocaust together with several other inmates and he observed their behaviour closely. He found that those with a capability to focus on love were the ones that survived. He based this commentary on a long walk he was forced into by his captors. His companion spoke about his wife. This made Frankl consider his wife and the thought of her took his mind away from his current agony of being hit with rifle butts by his captors for dawdling.

The book has been listed as one of the vital 10 most influential books. It has a message of hope that has continued to inspire readers down the years.
