Summary The Meaning of Life is a lecture that was presented before a live audience in 1986, in which Frankl distinguishes his approach from that of Freud, Adler, and Maslow. Further, Frankl makes a plea for self-transcendence; that is, the "intentional" life, directed to creating future meaning. He contends that life is unconditionally meaningful, and in discussing the family, he argues that love alone allows us to grasp the uniqueness of another. Frankl offers the exquisitely simple and complex truth that meaning can be gained though love, which as a force, is as strong as death. This powerful lecture is appropriate for all listeners, professional and lay. Excellent industrial-grade video with exceptionally clear audio.
