    About this ebook

    The will to power (German: der Wille zur Macht) is a prominent concept in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. The will to power describes what Nietzsche may have believed to be the main driving force in humans: achievement, ambition, the striving to reach the highest possible position in life; these are all manifestations of the will to power.

    • 5/5
      This is, perhaps, Nietzsche's most outrageous work. It's a singular vision that has something to offend the convictions of both the left and the right. Such contemporary obsessions as identity politics and conservative nostalgia are objects of his withering, dismissive scorn. The fragmentary nature of the work precludes sustained argument, but the rationale of his critiques is easily discerned.

      The new translation published in Penguin Classics strips away the anachronisms of earlier versions giving clear access to Nietzsche's thought.
    • 2/5
      Not one of his best, but still deserves merit
    • 3/5
      This is the posthumous collection of Nierzsche's miscellaneous writings. While presenting some of his thoughts on the title subject among others, the book does not have the imprimatur of the original author and has been used in ways antithetical to the Nietzsche's original life project.
