The Philosophy of Nietzsche (Meridian classics)

The selections in this anthology cover a vast range. The reader will find contradiction, ambivalence, ambiguity. But he will also find the insight, the brilliant prose style, the often mordant wit, the impassioned attempt to create human values in a post-Christian world, which have made Nietzsche one of the most relevant of philosophers for contemporary man. Designed to reflect the many facets of Nietzsche's philosophy, these selections exemplify the mind and thought of a man who strove to reconcile the rational and irrational in human nature - and in so doing, to provide a new basis of morality in a world bereft of guideposts.
