  <about><![CDATA[Viktor Emil Frankl M.D., Ph.D. was an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist as well as a Holocaust survivor. Frankl was the founder of logotherapy, which is a form of Existential Analysis, the &quot;Third Viennese School&quot; of psychotherapy.

His book &lt;i&gt;Man's Search for Meaning&lt;/i&gt; (first published under a different title in 1959: &lt;i&gt;From Death-Camp to Existentialism&lt;/i&gt;. Originally published in 1946 as &lt;i&gt;Ein Psycholog erlebt das Konzentrationslager&lt;/i&gt;) chronicles his experiences as a concentration camp inmate and describes his psychotherapeutic method of finding meaning in all forms of existence, even the most sordid ones, and thus a reason to continue living. He was one of the key figures in existential therapy.
