  Man's search for meaning : An Introduction to Logotherapy 
  “One of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought in the last fifty years.” —Dr. Carl Rogers, psychologist and founder of Rogerian therapy. 
  “Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning is one of the great books of our time. Typically, if a book has one passage, one idea with the power to change a person’s life, that alone justifies reading it, rereading it, and finding room for it on one’s shelves. This book has several such passages.” —Harold S. Kushner, author and rabbi emeritus at Temple Israel. 
  Viktor Frankl's account of his battle for survival at Auschwitz and other concentration camps is included in Man's Search for Meaning, one of the great masterpieces to come out of the Holocaust. 
  Generations of readers have been captivated by this book because of its depictions of life in Nazi death camps and its spiritual survival teachings. 
  Frankl contends that although we cannot escape pain, we can decide how to manage it, find meaning in it, and go on with a new sense of purpose based on his personal experience and the testimonies of his patients. The belief that the pursuit of what we find significant, rather than pleasure, is the fundamental human motivation is at the core of his philosophy, which is known as logotherapy. 
  One of the most important books in the Universe today is Man's Search for Meaning, which never stops encouraging us to discover meaning in life itself.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi tells the story of Gifty, a neuroscientist, as she grapples with her family's history of addiction, mental illness, and the complexities of faith. The narrative alternates between Gifty’s childhood in Alabama, marked by her Pentecostal upbringing and her brother Nana’s struggles with addiction, and her present life as a graduate student at Stanford, where she is focused on her research into reward-seeking behavior in mice. Gifty’s scientific pursuit becomes a way to understand her family's pain, as she seeks to find answers to questions that have eluded her through religion and personal experience. The story delves into themes of cultural identity, the immigrant experience, the limitations of science, the nature of faith, and the search for meaning in the face of loss. The book explores how science and religion can both provide and fail to provide answers when confronting the complexities of life.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  "The Flavor Bible" by Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg is a comprehensive guide to culinary creativity. It explores the complex nature of flavor, which includes taste, mouthfeel, aroma, and the emotional and spiritual aspects of food. The book emphasizes the importance of balancing the four basic tastes: sweet, salty, sour, and bitter, to achieve deliciousness. It moves beyond rigid recipes to focus on a more intuitive approach to cooking, highlighting the need for creativity and sound judgment. It stresses the importance of understanding ingredients, their flavor profiles, and how to combine them effectively. Ultimately, the book presents cooking as a way of “being” in the world and a means of meditation and healing, not just a way of putting food on the table.
