This book was written by VIKTOR E. FRANKL and was published originally in 1946 which contains at least 200 pages. The writer described himself as a sociologist who helped people to know the meaning of their lives. The writer says that during the time of World War 2 his complete family was abducted by the German ruler Hitler who was very cruel and he had killed his complete family just as he remained and was taken to a camp called a concentration camp.

This was the worst camp where prisoners were treated badly due to which this camp was named badly. The writer says that everyone in this camp was depressed when they would be left and meet their family or relatives due to which they would become mental and would die even due to depression. The writer describes that every morning when they woke up they saw the sign of death as they were not provided food which is necessary due to which people suffered in this camp. After that, he started thinking about how to help the people in this camp and what was the reason that he was kept at this camp.

After thinking about this, he decided to run away or come out of the camp and help the people to find meaning in their lives. In 1945, he came out from the camp and started logotherapy which he owned himself the purpose of opening logotherapy was to help to find the meaning of what they start or live. When he had patients he asked them a question about why they don’t commit suicide so patients become shocked but some answered with great courage due to which they could easily find the meaning in their lives.

The main theme of the book is that whatever we start as an action or etc. we should know the meaning of starting that action or question ourselves can do this.
