The Will to Power by Friedrich Nietzsche
Heralds the decline of modern Western civilization. In this book, nihilism - the uncanny and pervasive feeling that life is devoid of all meaning, purpose, and value - is subjected to a thoroughgoing and multifaceted examination.
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was born in the village of Röcken in Saxony on October 15, 1844. Nietzsche, whose father was a Lutheran pastor, spent a year as a theology student at the University of Bonn, then in 1865, before studying classical philology at the University of Leipzig. Despite poor health and desperate loneliness, Nietzsche managed to produce a book (or a book-length supplement to an earlier publication) every year from 1878 to 1887. In early January 1889, he collapsed in the street in Turin, Italy, confused and incoherent. He spent the last eleven years of his life institutionalized or under the care of his family.
