The Ego And His Own (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781163479759)

The Ego and His Own is a philosophical treatise written by Max Stirner and published in 1844. It is considered one of the most radical and influential works of individualist anarchism. The book explores the concept of the individual and the ego, arguing that the individual is the only true authority and that society and its institutions are mere constructs that serve to limit the potential of the individual. Stirner argues that individuals should reject all forms of external authority and instead embrace their own desires and impulses. He also critiques traditional morality and religion, arguing that they are tools used by society to control individuals. The Ego and His Own is a challenging and thought-provoking work that continues to influence modern philosophy and political theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
