We All Fail Sometimes. Now, A World-leading Harvard Professor Reveals How These Failures Can Lead Us To Happier, More Successful Lives – Provided We Know How To Learn From Them. We Used To Think Of Failure As A Problem, To Be Avoided At All Costs. Now, We’re Often Told That Failure Is Desirable – That We Must ‘fail Fast, Fail Often’.

She Draws On A Lifetime’s Research Into The Science Of ‘psychological Safety’ To Show That The Most Successful Cultures Are Those In Which You Can Fail Openly, Without Your Mistakes Being Held Against You. She Introduces The Three Archetypes Of Failure – Simple, Complex And Intelligent – And Explains How To Harness The Revolutionary Potential Of The Good Ones (and Eliminate The Bad). And She Tells Vivid Stories Ranging From The History Of Open Heart Surgery To The Columbia Space Shuttle Disaster, All To Ask A Simple, Provocative Question: What If It Is Only By Learning To Fail That We Can Hope To Truly Succeed?

'A book to read, to cherish, to debate, and one that will ultimately keep the memories of the victims alive' John Boyne, author of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
A prominent Viennese psychiatrist before the war, Viktor Frankl was uniquely able to observe the way that both he and others in Auschwitz coped (or didn't) with the experience. He noticed that it was the men who comforted others and who gave away their last piece of bread who survived the longest - and who offered proof that everything can be taken away from us except the ability to choose our attitude in any given set of circumstances. The sort of person the concentration camp prisoner became was the result of an inner decision and not of camp influences alone. Frankl came to believe man's deepest desire is to search for meaning and purpose. This outstanding work offers us all a way to transcend suffering and find significance in the art of living.
