Beyond Good and Evil: Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future, Friedrich, Nietzche
SKU: 1-21-NIEBGE-P
VENDOR: Penguin Random House
Beyond Good and Evil represents Nietzsche's attempt to sum up his philosophy. In nine parts the book is designed to give the reader a comprehensive idea of Nietzsche's thought and style: they span "The Prejudices of Philosophers," "The Free Spirit," religion, morals, scholarship, "Our Virtues," "Peoples and Fatherlands," and "What Is Noble," as well as epigrams and a concluding poem. Beyond Good and Evil is one of the most remarkable and influential books of the nineteenth century.
This translation by Walter Kaufmann has become the standard one, for accuracy and fidelity to the eccentricities and grace of the style of the original. The translation is based on the only edition Nietzsche himself published, and all variant reading in later editions. This volume offers an inclusive index of subjects and persons, as well as a running footnote commentary on the text.
This book is paperback and is recommended reading for Hillsdale's free online course, "Introduction to Western Philosophy"

Before Good and Eville
This was purchased to be a gift for my son-in-law who is authoring and attempting to get a comic strip about two characters, named Good and Eville, off the ground. If you're wondering, the story is moving and the artwork is superb. I'm anxiously awaiting my copy.
He’s back
Yes he’s back and more relevant than ever with new advocates like Jordan Peterson. “ I write more in a sentence than most write in a book” , well at least we know there’s no ego problem there, but he just may be right .
