Frankl's experiences in Auschwitz and Dachau, among other camps, are used to explain the psychological theory that he developed as a prisoner, and as such bring his psychological philosophies into a more personalized and humanized realm.

Logotherapy, often called the "Third Viennese School of Psychotherapy", is something particularly relevant to our modern society, which consistently reports that finding meaning in life is more important than anything else. This books helps, even in the smallest of ways, to redirect one's thinking away from what life can bring to them. Rather, it invites the reader to focus on deciding for themselves what potential positive experience every situation may hold, and gives the individual the tools necessary to seize these potentialities.
