Description

This concise, accessible guide introduces Nietzsche's radical philosophy on morality, meaning, and the power of individual will.

Friedrich Nietzsche has had an extraordinary impact on modern philosophy, but what did he really mean when he talked about the 'death of God'? What are we to make of the idea of the 'superman'? And what should be the guiding light for our morality?

With each chapter featuring famous quotes from the philosopher and a broader discussion of the general theories they convey, The Pocket Book of Nietzsche provides an ideal introduction to one of the world's great thinkers.
