Book Description
A 19th-century literary masterpiece, tremendously influential in the arts and in philosophy, uses the Persian religious leader Zarathustra to voice the author’s views, including the introduction of the controversial doctrine of the Übermensch, or "superman," a term later perverted by Nazi propagandists. A passionate, quasi-biblical style is employed to inspire readers to become more than they have been and to transcend the limitations of conventional morality. A provocative work that remains a fixture of college reading lists.

Love 'im or hate 'im, Nietzsche was one heck of a writer, whatever one's personal feelings of his philosophies. TSZ is possibly Nietzsche's best-known work, mostly famous for the often taken out of context "God is dead" quote. However, it's an exuberant, frenetic work which has challenged generations of students, philosophers and just plain old dilettantes.
Definitely worth reading, if only to understand why this has had such an enormous impact on subsequent political and philosophical thought.
