The lack of coherent structure in this work which may delight such lovers of disorder who might like to claim poor Fritz as their own is, in sooth, due to the unfortunate fact that Will to Power was not really written by Nietzsche. His sister, who appears to have gotten the short end of the genius stick in the family (and was thus deeply anti-semitic) collected her favorite of her brother's aphorisms which he had never intended to publish. At the time he was laid up in bed, sick and a maniac, so...more

My favorite Nietzsche cuz of its scope and aphoristic form (mostly incomplete journal-entries, a real glimpse into his mind). Disproves a number of the common misconceptions about N, i.e. that his theory supported Nazism (he rants against both German nationalism and anti-semites) and that he was a nihilist (the whole project of this book is to rescue humanity from nihilism, be it active or passive).

They butchered him, they great mans works subverted for a cause he had no time for. Shows which sibling was ever so wise. The bits that appear to be writen by the man himself are interesting but you can clearly see a switch in style and tone through out the book.

Nietzsche was a jewel in the rough, then. Line for line the most original thinker, as I thought it. And calling out the Germans, "who no longer think"--interesting that he was twisted to suit the Nazis' aims.

Yes, it's 600 pages long. And YES, it is entirely worth it. Kaufmann has organized the book thematically and this collection of notes provides invaluable insights that supplement his published works.

not a supporter of nihilism and thusly, Nietzsche. though he is profound at times, it is almost guaranteed he will contradict himself (or already has).
should read it anyway to expand one's mind.

Not for the faint-of-heart, and definitely not for someone without prior familiarity with Nietzsche, this book serves mostly as a neat look at many of his ideas in their infancy.

Nietzsche poses some great philisophical questions, but rambles like a madman. Sure, the argumentative process has improved greatly since then, but this is a very hard read.

اراده ی قدرت که نیچه از آن سخن می گوید,به معنای همان کشش به قدرت یا کشش به سوی نیرو می باشد......

fascinating thoughts from one of the world's most brilliant philosophers. Topics range from religion, culture, society to you name it. Tons of food for thought.

A discussion of the role of thymos and megalothymos in modern history. The idea of thymos of "spiritedness" runs in a continuous line from Plato to Nietzsche.

Not a bad collection of the guys writings. Just open up any page and go nuts. Fun for the entire family! (just make sure to deconstruct the damn thing)

A very important book. In a younger age, it showed me a completely distinctive path for formulating the concept of power.

This is a N. Book requiring the brain to work a bit on the hard side. May make you stop reading him again.

I think I probably just read a segment from this, but I used it to write a paper. ...Again, showing off.
