My husband is a retired airline Captain and requested this book for Christmas after he read a short excerpt somewhere. It was only sheer willpower that kept me from reading the book before giving it to him – fortunately he read it relatively quickly so I got my turn before New Year’s day.

… I really do. It’s a great departure from the metaphysics of Jung and the sex-centered Freud. It might have been more helpful to present his theory of logotherapy before his account of the camps, but it still worked. And to all the people who bashed the book for not being complete in some way read page 97, Frankl flat outs says that it would be impossible to condense his entire theory down to 20-30 pages when it took volume upon volume in his native German to lay it all out. If you’re going to bash a book on these bases you might not want to forget the author’s own disclaimer (or maybe you do because then you wouldn’t have anything to whine about).
