Story
Sociopaths comprise an alarming four percent of the population; that is, one in every 25 people is a sociopath. But this mental disorder is not well understood and many people fail to recognize it in others, which makes sociopaths difficult to identify and potentially very dangerous. It is urgent that people understand what a sociopath is and learn to recognize their revealing traits in order to protect themselves against these individuals who otherwise blend into the general population.

Viktor Frankl's memoir, Man's Search for Meaning is about so much more than one man's experiences in a concentration camp. As a book about the Holocaust, it helps to shed light on the day-to-day struggles that inmates faced physically, psychologically, and socially. But it also reaches far beyond camp life and into the meaning of life itself.

Eleven months after he was liberated from the Nazi concentration camps, Viktor E. Frankl held a series of public lectures in Vienna. The psychiatrist, who would soon become world famous, explained his central thoughts on meaning, resilience, and the importance of embracing life even in the face of great adversity. Published here for the very first time in English, Frankl's words resonate as strongly today as they did in 1946. He offers an insightful exploration of the maxim "Live as if you were living for the second time".

Amoral, ruthless, devious, and pragmatic, The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene is a self-help book offering crucial advice to anyone interested in gaining, maintaining, or defending against power. The feeling of having no power over people or events is usually unbearable - when we feel helpless we feel miserable. We all want power, no matter who we are, what goals we have, or where we come from. It is dangerous, however, to seem too power-hungry, or to seek power in a clear, obvious manner. If you want to succeed in this game, you must remain subtle.

Publisher's Summary
Please note: This is key takeaways and analysis of the book and not the original book.
Preview:
Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl is a memoir of Frankl's imprisonment in concentration camps during World War II and a brief description of the principles of logotherapy, a school of psychotherapy that he founded.
Frankl and his family were imprisoned in concentration camps during the war. Frankl was held in several camps before he was liberated from the last in 1945. During his time in the camps, Frankl witnessed the extreme cruelty of camp guards and the prisoners who were given special status by them, also known as Capos. He also witnessed the cruelty of the prisoners to each other as they underwent the three stages of reaction to their imprisonment. These stages are denial, acceptance, and adjustment after their release.
Frankl discovered that although the prisoners seemed completely powerless, they had the freedom to choose their reactions to their circumstances. Those prisoners who were most resilient were those who had something to live for....

Summary is a good overview
It's a lot shorter than expected, but long enough to get the overall crux of the message. In short: we can't control what happens to us, but we can control our reaction and attitude in response.

The best summary of this book
I've read the unabridged book twice, and have listened to this Insta read summary as well as another summary. This summary of the book has been the best one that I've listen to so far. Although it doesn't replace the unabridged book, which I highly recommend, it does an adequate job as a summary of the book.

The lack of story telling caused the book to feel rather light weight and lacking substance. Although it can be argued that this was just an overview I think specific quotes from the book would have helped.
