Brief description: Viktor E. Frankl was an Austrian neurologist, psychiatrist, and Holocaust survivor best known for founding logotherapy, a form of psychotherapy that focuses on the human search for meaning. He was born in 1905 in Vienna and showed early interest in psychology, especially in understanding depression and suicide.During World War II, Frankl and his family were sent to Nazi concentration camps, including Auschwitz. He lost his parents, brother, and pregnant wife in the camps. Despite this extreme suffering, he observed that people who found meaning in life were more likely to survive. This insight became the foundation of his psychological theory.After the war, Frankl wrote his famous book Man's Search for Meaning, which combines his personal experiences with his ideas about meaning and resilience. The book has influenced millions of readers worldwide.Frankl believed that life has meaning in all circumstances, even the most painful ones. According to him, people can find meaning through work, love, and courage in facing suffering. His ideas remain highly relevant in modern psychology and personal development.
