The philosopher who announced the death of God in "The Gay Science" (1882) and went on to challenge the Christian code of morality in "Beyond Good and Evil" (1886), grappled with the fundamental issues of the human condition in his own intense autobiography, "Ecce Homo" (1888). Most notorious of all, perhaps, his idea of the triumphantly transgressive ubermann ('superman') is developed in the extreme, yet poetic words of ...

"I had this book sitting on my desk at a job I had, when I first read it about 14 years ago...a co worker saw it and asked where I was going to college...I replied I was not attending college, she said "you are reading Nietzshe without it being required?" I always laugh when I think of that. I love his philosophy, but maybe it takes a little bit of an off-kiltered person such as myself to enjoy that. :)"
"This was my introduction to Nietzsche's philosophy. It is a collection of excerpts from all his major works. I was so enthralled with this book when I read it I hardly slept. Nietzsche is a great writer, and he will always have you chuckling evilly, one of the few philosophers with a sense of humor.
Nietzsche will make you look beyond good and evil and question all those things Biblical parables you were taught in parochial school. His philosophy is much more than a critique of God and religion however - there is so much more to the self-proclaimed Anti-Christ."
