New to Penguin Classics,The Will to Powercontains some of Nietzsche's most
fascinating and combative writings on nihilism, metaphysics and the future of
Europe.
Assembled by Nietzsche's sister after his death, The Will to Power is a
collection of the philosopher's reflections and theories taken from his
unpublished notebooks. Covering topics such as nihilism, Christianity, morality,
and the famous "will to power," the book was controversially presented as
Nietzsche's all-but-completed magnum opus containing his philosophical system.
Including some of his most interesting metaphysical and epistemological
thoughts, as well as some of his most disturbing ethical and political comments,
the book would prove to have a significant influence on Nietzsche's contentious
reception
