Man's Search for Meaning
Viktor Frankl · 1946
A psychiatrist's account of surviving the Nazi camps, and his argument that people can bear almost anything if it has a meaning for them.
Worth knowing: Some historians have questioned details of his account. The therapy he founded (logotherapy) has little trial evidence. The memoir part is the reason to read it.
