The thesis is, as the title alludes, that morality is ultimately relativistic - that right and wrong are not absolutes but are considerably flexible - and variable in different societies at all times. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Although he qualifies his views as opinions rather than facts and asks his readers to examine his premises critically before agreeing with his views, Nietzsche leaves no doubt that he is confident that all previous philosophers were wrong about important precepts and he alone is right. His criticism of his immediate predecessors is somewhat more restrained than in some of his other works and directs his harshest criticism at Plato for his fabrications of \"Pure Spirit and Transcendental Goodness.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Nietzsche was fervently opposed the prevailing religious concepts of morality. His reputation as being anti-Christian was, and still is, sufficient grounds to inspire considerable criticism of his philosophy. As much as his critics might disagree with Nietzsche's philosophy, they cannot simply dismiss it. Nietzsche intelligence and persuasiveness make him a formidable figure in field of moral philosophy. His influence on modern philosophical theory is considerable and it is likely that his contributions will continue to inspire controversy for some time to come.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934255114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934255117\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Digital Pulse Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.41d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44074227433727,"sku":"9781934255117","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9129f21d-80da-4446-803b-2c8e05a38ed1.jpg?v=1685452528","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beyond-good-and-evil-friedrich-wilhelm-nietzsche-9781934255117","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
