Human, All Too Human

Book • 2007
Friedrich Nietzsche's "Human, All Too Human" marks a significant shift in his philosophical approach.

Moving away from the more romantic and tragic themes of his earlier works, this book adopts a more critical and psychological perspective.

It explores human nature, morality, and the role of reason and emotion in shaping our understanding of the world.

The work is characterized by its aphoristic style and its focus on psychological and historical analysis.

Its influence on subsequent thinkers is considerable.
