ECSTASY - WAR - DEICIDE NIHILISM - CHANCE - REVENGE ANTI-CHRIST -ÀoeBERMENSCH AMNESIA - CHAOS - MASKS SICKNESS - PAIN - SUICIDE - SOCIOPATHY - WILL TO POWER - ETERNAL RETURN - NEGATION HAMMER OF THE GODS presents Friedrich Nietzsche's most prophetic, futuristic and apocalyptic philosophies and traces them against the upheavals of the last century and the current post-millennial panic. This radical re-interpretation reveals Nietzsche as the only guide to the madness in our society which he himself prophesied over a century ago; Nietzsche as a philosopher against society, against both the state and the herd; Nietzsche as philosopher with a hammer. Compiled, translated and edited by Stephen Metcalf. New edition of the classic Nietzsche reader which has sold steadily since its original publication in 1995. Expanded with an additional appendix, and featuring new cover art.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (October 15, 1844-Weimar, August 25, 1900) was a German philosopher, poet, musician, and philologist, whose work has had a profound influence on contemporary global thought and Western culture.
Nietzsche wrote on topics as diverse as art, philology, music, history, religion, science, and tragedy. He critiqued culture, religion, and Western philosophy through the genealogy of the concepts that integrate them, based on the analysis of moral attitudes (positive and negative) towards life.
It is particularly notable the influence exerted on Nietzsche by the also German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer, whom he considered his teacher, although he did not follow Schopenhauer's ideas dogmatically, and in many aspects, he diverged from his thought, even making a radical critique of his philosophical ideas.
