This special edition includes 'Fragments from a Shattering Mind', previously untranslated texts from 1888-89. Comprising new views on nihilism, the Antichrist, sex, decadence and power, these terminal writings form the revelatory sub-text of a titanic mind on course for apocalyptic meltdown.

Friedrich Nietzsche's "The Antichrist" might be more aptly named "The Antichristian," for it is an unmitigated attack on Christianity that Nietzsche makes within the text instead of an exposition on evil or Satan as the title might suggest. In "The Antichrist," Nietzsche presents a highly controversial view of Christianity as a damaging influence upon western civilization that must come to an end. Regardless of ones religious or philosophical point of view, "The Antichrist" makes for an engaging philosophical discourse.
