The Rape Of Nanking (Iris Chang) & Man's Search For Meaning (Viktor Frankl) - Book Review

This episode of the Mere Mortal book review looks at 'The Rape of Nanking' written by Iris Chang and 'Man's Search For Meaning' by Viktor Frankl. Both books are focused on massacres that occurred during WWII, but take different perspectives. Chang's book is more of a history of the event, a way to highlight to the world the tragedy in Nanking. Frankl's book deals with the reason why we live and is a personalised account of his journey through the concentration camps as well as a treatise on Logotherapy, his own brand of psychotherapy. Both deal with unpleasant historical events, but are essential reading.Connect with Mere Mortals:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcast/Support the show
