Description
Beyond Good and Evil contains Nietzsche's mature philosophy of the free spirit. Although it is one of his most widely read texts, it is a notoriously difficult piece of philosophical writing.

This Reader's Guide is the ideal companion to study, offering guidance on:
- Philosophical and historical context
- Key themes
- Reading the text
-Further reading
