Simply Nietzsche – Peter KailĬategory: General Introduction | Length: 560 pages | Published: 2013 (revised) Here are the best books on or by Nietzsche in no particular order. Following these links will help you quickly find a broader range of options if the listed books do not fit what you are looking for. Links to the syllabi and other sources used to create this list are at the end of the post. These lists were created by searching through hundreds of university course syllabi, internet encyclopedia bibliographies, and community recommendations. This list is part of a collection of over 100 philosophy reading lists which aim to provide a central resource for philosophy book recommendations. Personal book recommendations tend to be highly subjective, idiosyncratic, and unreliable. It’s also worth noting that it is not a list of personal recommendations. If you prefer more depth, you can choose a more comprehensive introduction or read Nietzsche for yourself. For example, if you tend to find classic works of philosophy difficult to understand, you might want to start with a short, beginner-friendly introduction. The best book for you will depend heavily on your preferred learning style and the amount of time/energy you’re willing to spend reading. It’s important to note that there is no single best book on Nietzsche. From beginner-friendly introductions to classic works by Nietzsche, this page features books to suit any learning style.
