What Nietzsche Really Said - Solomon, Robert C.; Higgins, Kathleen M.

Clean, tight, unmarked; very light wear to corners and edges; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; This book gives us a lucid overview - both informative and entertaining - of perhaps the most widely read and least understood philosopher in history. Friedrich Nietzsche's aggressive independence, flamboyance, sarcasm, and celebration of strength have struck responsive chords in contemporary culture. More people than ever are reading and discussing his writings. But Nietzsche's ideas are often overshadowed by the myths and rumours that surround his sex life, his politics, and his sanity. In this lively and comprehensive analysis. Nietzsche scholars Solomon and Higgins get to the heart of Nietzsche's philosophy, from his ideas on the "will to power" to his attack on religion and morality and his infamous Ubermensch (superman).
