Beyond Good and Evil

Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future
Book • 2003
In 'Beyond Good and Evil', Nietzsche challenges the traditional morality and philosophical thought of his time.

He argues that the Christian world is steeped in a 'slave morality' that demonizes strength and domination, and instead proposes a philosophy that celebrates the present and the individual's 'will to power'.

The book is known for its aphoristic style and its critique of past philosophers for their dogmatic premises.

Nietzsche advocates for a new kind of philosopher who values imagination, self-assertion, and the creation of values, and he introduces the concept of 'perspective of life' which denies a universal morality for all human beings.
