Routledge Philosophy Guidebook to Nietzsche on Morality (Routledge Philosophy Guidebooks)

Brian Leiter

Routledge, 2002

Terrific book
I've looked at a number of analyses of Nietzsche's writings, and this one is by far the best for someone reading this philosopher for the first time, as well as for anyone who has read around in Nietzsche without coming away with any clear conception of what exactly it was all supposed to be about. The book focuses on Nietzsche's theories of morality as set out in 'On the Genealogy of Morality,' ...

Amzing images from an underated artist
"I spent a great deal of my life being ignored. I was always very happy that way. Being ignored is a great privilege. That is how I think I learnt to see what others do not see and to react to situations differently. I simply looked at the world, not really prepared for anything." Saul Leiter. The other day a package arrived from London. It was the Saul Leiter book "Reprint" by Steidl. After ...

Daybreak: Thoughts on the Prejudices of Morality (Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy)

10 reviews
Friedrich Nietzsche

Cambridge University Press, 1997

Nietzsche's Early Thoughts on Morality
In Nietzsche's Daybreak we see the beginnings of Nietzsche's complete and exhaustive interrogation of morality with its link to suffering. As with all of N's books, there are real gems here. His tone is calm and sedate, not shrill and inflated as in later works, such as the Anti-Christ or Twilight of the Idols. And it begins with a commencement to undermine our faith in morality. This is a ...

Gila Leiter, Rachel Kranz

Dell, 2000

Exactly what I needed!
This book was very beneficial to me. This was my first pregnancy and I bought several books but none of them focused on twins or even had a chapter dedicated to twins. Most, if not all, of my questions were answered reading this book. I also took advantage of the resources provided.

The Truth About Burnout: How Organizations Cause Personal Stress and What to Do About It

10 reviews
Christina Maslach, Michael P. Leiter

Jossey-Bass, 1997

One of the Best Books on a Pervasive Problem
Christina Maslach is well-known in psychology as the person who has championed the problem of burnout over more than two decades. For quite a time she was something of a lone voice. Burnout is a prolonged response to chronic physical, emotional and interpersonal stressors at work, leading to exhaustion, cynicism and inefficacy. In a memorable term the authors describe it as erosion of the ...

Wrox, 2006

Great Book for Beginnners
This is an awesome book for someone that is new to SQL Server and needs to learn basic administration. The authors did a really good job of explaining the fundamentals in clear simple language. I especially enjoyed the explanation of the storage engine. It made things clear to me that I didn't understand previously.

The Complete Reporter: Fundamentals of News Gathering, Writing, and Editing (7th Edition)

2 reviews
Kelly Leiter, Julian Harriss, ...

Allyn & Bacon, 1999

A must for anybody wanting to write news.
I've read the fifth edition and found it to not have the number of typos other reviewers found in the 7th Ed., so I presume the typos were intentional as is common among publishers to protect their copyrights. At any rate, this book is intended for the journalism student. It can get somewhat dry. In such a setting one can't expect cotton candy and Reese Peanut Butter Cups! The people that can ...

Nietzsche and Morality

Oxford University Press, USA, 2007

Nietzsche was surprisingly neglected by most English-language moral philosophers until recently. This volume capitalizes on a growth of interest in Nietzsche's work on morality from two sides -- from scholars of the history of philosophy and from contributors to current debates on ethical theory. In eleven new essays, leading philosophers aim both to advance philosophical understanding of Nietzsche's ethical views -- his normative and ...
