Product Description
In this book a new interpretation of Nietzsche's writings weaves together several issues: power, value, nature, sexuality and sexual politics, and religion. This is perhaps the first book to address all these issues, and it offers the reader new possibilities for engaging this amazing thinker. The title of the book, taken from Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil, encapsulates his philosophical adventure.
Friedrich Nietzsche's notoriety is most often associated with his perspectives on, and interpretations of, Christianity. Here, the author 'unmasks' the great essayist as he surreptitiously and cleverly proceeds to expose the destructive power of Christianity on Western culture (and hence the world).
As we face a rapidly growing specter of religious turmoil and see faith being used to rouse passions and threaten stability around the world, this timely study provides an overview of Friedrich Nietzsche's positions and ideas about the Church and about power more broadly.
The approach involved the use of mostly primary material, with further elaboration and development. The style, substance and approach to the material are geared to entice the reader into wanting to read Nietzsche for himself or herself.
