Manoj Juyal asked this question about Man's Search for Meaning:
What is the difference between "The Man's search for Meaning" and "Man's search for Ultimate Meaning?" I just found out that both these books are written by Viktor Frankl. I am not sure which one to read.

I found the best solution to be to go to the library and have a look inside the book, to make sure what it is.

In my case, for example, I was recommended to read the English title "Man's search for meaning" but then I found out that it had been translated to my native language. Therefore I started to look for that book, which had a slightly different title compared to the English version (if re-translated to English it would be somewhat like "Life must have meaning").

It turned out that the book that I was looking at was a combination out of 2 separate books. 1) "Ein Psychologe erlebt das Konzentrationslager" 2) "Man's search for meaning. An introduction to logotherapy".

That edition wasn't even in Goodreads before I added it manually :)(less)
