Scrupulously edited so as to establish a new standard for the field  each volume includes an Afterword that presents and contextualizes the material therein. This volume provides the first English translation of Nietzsches unpublished notebooks from 18821884  the period in which he was composing the book that he considered his best and most important work  Thus Spoke Zarathustra.
