Beyond Good and Evil by Friedrich Nietzsche

"Beyond Good and Evil" is a philosophical work that challenges the moral conventions of the time, arguing that concepts of good and evil are not absolute but are instead social constructs. The book delves into the nature of individual morality, asserting that it is driven by self-interest and the will to power. It also criticizes past philosophers for their unquestioning acceptance of religious and societal norms, and promotes the idea of the "overman" or "superman", a superior human who embraces his instincts and creates his own values.
