The Unheard Cry for Meaning,
By Leonard "leibelestrin" (Pittsburgh, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The UNHEARD CRY F0R MEANING (Mass Market Paperback)
If you were to name the three biggest challenges man faces today, chances are, they would be addiction, depression, and aggression. In The Unheard Cry for Meaning, Viktor Frankl, convincingly argues that they all stem from one source: man's search for meaning.Victor Frankl is someone who understands man's make-up as very few secular scholars could. He was a professor in two fields, neurology and psychiatry and a survivor of four concentration camps, including Dachau and Auschwitz. In his own words, "I bear witness to the unexpected extent to which man is capable of defying and braving even the worst conditions imaginable." In Frankl's experience, the desire to give life meaning enables man to transcend his condition, even in the face of crisis. His book, the Unheard Cry for Meaning, explores that theme while demythologizing sports, sex, literature, and other areas of our so-called "enlightened" society. In a media-crazed world filled with violence, addiction, and depression, Frankl's Unheard Cry for Meaning is an oasis of reason and humanity. As such, it should be read by everyone you know. |
