Reseña

Though it may seem paradoxical, this book is not about Nietzsche,
strictly speaking. It is a book about men and women today, and the
profound crisis that we are collectively experiencing. If Nietzsche
emerges as a protagonist, it is only because I believe that no other
thinker has explored this crisis with the depth that he has, and no
one else has proposed a possible way out of the crisis quite as well
as he has. Only in this sense might this book be “about” Nietzsche.
Few philosophers have been as misunderstood and, I would
add, completely misrepresented as Nietzsche. In our day and age,
understanding the core of his work is one of the most urgent and
important challenges we can and should pose for ourselves. Of all
the philosophers of the modern era, none projects into the future
quite as deeply and powerfully as Nietzsche does. His philosophy
opens the door to an entirely different future. It is like a ray of light
illuminating a path that we cannot help but follow.
