Title: Read this book if you're curious about Nietzsche...
Product review: With all of the volumes and volumes of essays and novels written about such a great man, one can see how difficult it would be to condense a summary into an overview about as big as Cliffs Notes. However, Paul Strathern does a fine job. When I first opened the book, I was turned off by the seemingly strong and objective views of the author who was supposed to take a neutral perspective, until I realized that he was merely taking on the stance of many generalizations of the public. His wit and sarcasm make this a very enjoyable and easy to read introduction. It is clear and concise and even includes insightful little stories. A humorous and excellent timesaver for those who merely want to satisfy their curiousity. An even better jump off point for those who've found themselves curious and hooked.
