Nietzsche's assault on the philosophical tradition and its hidden moral assumptions. In 296 numbered aphorisms spanning nine chapters, he dissects the self-deception of philosophers who mistake prejudice for truth, attacks the slave morality that has come to dominate Western ethics, and sketches the contours of a new nobility — a "will to power" that affirms life rather than denying it. Written at the height of his powers and bristling with psychological insight, it remains one of the most challenging and widely read works in modern philosophy.
