Book Description
Beyond Good and Evil contains Nietzsche's mature philosophy of the free spirit. Although it is one of his most widely read texts, it is a notoriously difficult piece of philosophical writing. The authors demonstrate in clear and precise terms why it is to be regarded as Nietzsche's philosophical masterpiece and the work of a revolutionary genius.
This Reader's Guide is the ideal companion to study, offering guidance on:
- Philosophical and historical context
- Key themes
- Reading the text
- Further reading
Review
"The genius of this book is that it manages to be philosophically deep and contextually rich even while fulfilling the most basic explanatory tasks - this is a splendid introduction" - Robert Guay, Department of Philosophy, Binghamton University, USA, Foucault Studies, issue 18
