Author Description

"Friedrich Nietzsche's insights into psychology, morality, and religion seem as prescient today as they seemed controversial in his lifetime. In the century since his death, his provocative speculations on the existence of God, the limitations of scientific knowledge, and the endpoint of human evolution have intrigued and inspired world leaders as well as students and philosophers. Intro to Nietzsche is an essential guide for anyone who wants to understand the foundations of this great thinker's complex but fascinating philosophy. Combining informative text with imaginative modern graphic art, this book illuminates ideas and themes associated with Nietzsche that have become popular concepts in Western thought, including the Eternal Recurrence, the Will to Power, and the Superman."--Publisher description.
