Media reviews

“The most revolutionary book ever published … [Stirner] has left behind him a veritable Breviary of Destruction, a striking and dangerous book. It is dangerous in every sense of the word—to socialism, to politicians, to hypocrisy. But it asserts the dignity of the Individual, not his debasement.” —New York Times
 
“You will have heard of Stirner's book, The Ego and His Own ... And it is certainly true that we must first make a cause our own, egoistic cause ... we are communists out of egoism also, and it is out of egoism that we wish to be human beings, not mere individuals.” —Friedrich Engels to Karl Marx, 19 November 1844

Description:
New York: Verso Books, 2014. Later Printing. Trade paperback. Light shelfwear, small remainder dot on the bottom. Very Good. xxiii + 343pp. Credited with influencing the philosophies of Nietzsche and Ayn Rand and the development of libertarianism and existentialism, this prophetic 1844 work challenges the very notion of a common good as the driving force of civilization. Stirner chronicles the battle of the individual against the collective to show how the latter invariably leads to oppression.
