"For the world is in a bad state, but everything will become still worse unless each of us does his best. So, let us be alert - alert in a twofold sense:
Since Auschwitz we know what man is capable of.
And since Hiroshima we know what is at stake."

This book showed up in my life when I needed it the most. As gruesome as the description of Viktor Frankl's experiences in concentration camps were, he brought out the human-ness of that experience in his testimony and the stories of other individuals.

It's a book about hope and resilience. It's a book about people.
