description: This volume presents Nietzsche's remarkable collection of almost 1400 aphorisms in R.J. Hollingdale's distinguished translation, together with a new historical introduction by Richard Schacht. Subtitled "A Book for Free Spirits," Human, All Too Human marked for Nietzsche a new "positivism" &amp; skepticism with which he challenged his previous metaphysical &amp; psychological assumptions. Nearly all the themes of his later work are displayed here with characteristic perceptiveness &amp; honesty--not to say suspicion &amp; irony--in language of great brio. It remains one of the fundamental works for an understanding of his thought.
