He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Frankl came to believe man's deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eViktor Frankl was born in Vienna in 1905 and was Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry at the University of Vienna Medical School. His wife, father, mother and brother all died in Nazi concentration camps, only he and his sister survived, but he never lost the qualities of compassion, loyalty, undaunted spirit and thirst for life (earning his pilot's licence aged 67). He died in Vienna in 1997.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"DetailsTabs_reviews-box__MlIpA MuiBox-root mui-style-1v28ako\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-h5 MuiTypography-gutterBottom mui-style-h2ouy6\"\u003eIndustry Reviews\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-body1 mui-style-tgrox\"\u003eRemarkable...It changed my life and became a part of all that I live and all that I teach.\u003cbr\u003eAn enduring work of survival literature. * New York Times *\u003cbr\u003eA book to read, to cherish, to debate, and one that will ultimately keep the memories of the victims alive -- John Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas\u003cbr\u003eI have loved this book for so many years, and I think every human being should read it. -- Simon Sinek\u003cbr\u003eViktor Frankl...one of the moral heroes of the 20th century.
