Author: Nietzsche, Friedrich
ISBN: 9780140449235
Publisher: Penguin UK
Year first published: 05 May 2003
Pages: 240
Format: Paperback / softback
Beyond Good and Evil confirmed Nietzsche's position as the towering European philosopher of his age. The work dramatically rejects the tradition of Western thought with its notions of truth and God, good and evil. Nietzsche demonstrates that the Christian world is steeped in a false piety and infected with a 'slave morality'. With wit and energy, he turns from this critique to a philosophy that celebrates the present and demands that the individual imposes their own 'will to power' upon the world.
