Böcker av Simon May

A powerfully moving family memoir of loss, exile and self-concealment in Nazi Germany.

Love - unconditional, selfless, unchanging, sincere, and totally accepting - is worshipped today as the West's only universal religion. To challenge it is one of our few remaining taboos. The author does just that, dissecting our resilient ruling ideas of love and showing how they are the product of a long and powerful cultural heritage.

A critique of Nietzsche's attack on morality, and of his controversial ethics of "life-enhancement". Simon May is critical of various aspects of Nietzsche's thought, but acknowledges that it provides moral philosophy with tools for reassessing some of its most cherished values and concepts.
