Review # 1 was written on 2017-05-28 00:00:00 Robert Schaefer Good look in the life and work of Nietzsche. Anyone who is interested in philosophy and deeper thought, owes it to get over the audacity of "God is Dead" and peer into the mind of someone who truly challenged the status quo of his time. An original revolutionary. An observer of human behavior who held the creative aspect of humanity in high regard. The audio version is read by Charlton Heston.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-10-15 00:00:00 William Keenan "God is dead", probably the most famous statement of Nietzche. To deal with the loss to humanity that notion implies he proposes an alternative to the nihilism of Schopenhauer, and that is one of creativity and self improvement. He then, in my opinion, proceeds to fall off the cliff with that idea. He postulates that übermensch (over men) will come along for whom the "morality of the herd" does not apply. It is commonly held that Nietzche's philosophy was basis for the Nazi belief in creating a superior race, and that as such, the rules didn't apply to them.
