Beyond Good and Evil
A Nonfiction, German Literature, Philosophy book. The consequences of our actions take hold of us, quite indifferent to our claim...
Friedrich Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil is translated from the German by Helen Zimmern. First published in 1886, 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 accuses past philosophers of lacking critical sense and blindly accepting dogmatic premises in their consideration of morality. Specifically, he accuses them of founding grand metaphysical systems upon the faith that the good man is the opposite of the evil man, rather than just a different expression of the same basic impulses that find more direct expression in the evil man. 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.

Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil
For those of you who are unfamiliar with him, Friedrich Nietzsche was an angry little man who protected himself from the Mean Old World by swaddling himself in an exaggerated ego (and an even more exaggerated moustache).Rather than suggest that you read any or all of his works, I've taken the liberty of creating a "Nietzsche Book Generator"... I like it would be a bit of a stretchit was ok. Reads like a sermon. His views on women are worthy of nothing more then an eye-roll. I enjoyed the writings of this philosopher. The author was a strong thinker of the eighteen hundreds. His philosophy goes strongly against the western thought of Christianity. Instead of the slave morality that Christianity imbrases, his philosophy celebrates living in the moment.I recommend this book to all.Enjoy and Be Blessed.Diamond...
