Виктор Франкл, выдающийся венский психиатр, практикующий до начала второй Мировой войны, получил уникальную возможность наблюдать за тем, как он вместе с другими узниками Освенцима переживали (или нет) свое заточение. Он заметил, что дольше всех оставались в живых те, кто утешали других и отдавали свой последний кусок и кто доказал, что у них можно отнять все, но то, как относится к текущим событиям и как себя в них проявлять, они будут решать сами. То, каким стал человек, пройдя концлагерь, было результатом его выбора, а не влияния Освенцима. Франкл пришел к убеждению, что глубочайшее желание человека — поиск смысла и цели. Эта выдающаяся работа демонстрирует нам, как преодолеть страдания и найти смысл в искусстве жизни • язык издания: Английский • A prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped (or didn't) with the experience
