This volume brings together trends in the human search for meaning converging from various fields, and examines the process of meaning seeking. The first edition was one of the first books to bring together all this into one volume and relate it back to clinical practice. It predicted that the construct of meaning will occupy the center stage of psychology in the next century, a prediction that has come true. Since its publication, several trends have converged and contributed to the psychological study of meaning. This second edition will seek to expand the information from the first edition as well as bring the original chapters up-to-date.
