{"product_id":"2940169868845","title":"Nietzsche in 90 Minutes","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith Friedrich Nietzsche, philosophy was dangerous not only for philosophers but for everyone. Nietzsche ultimately went mad, but his ideas presaged a collective madness that had horrific consequences in Europe in the early 1900s. Though his philosophy is more one of aphorisms and insights than a system, it is brilliant, persuasive, and incisive. His major concept is the will to power, which he saw as the basic impulse for all our acts. Christianity he saw as a subtle perversion of this concept¿thus Nietzsche's famous pronouncement, \"God is dead.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eNietzsche in 90 Minutes\u003c\/em\u003e, Paul Strathern offers a concise, expert account of Nietzsche¿s life and ideas and explains their influence on man¿s struggle to understand his existence in the world. The book also includes selections from Nietzsche¿s work, a brief list of suggested readings for those who wish to delve deeper, and chronologies that place Nietzsche within his own age and in the broader scheme of philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blackstone Audio, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47098144620784,"sku":"2940169868845","price":6.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169868845_p0.jpg?v=1769901921","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169868845","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
