The Ego and His Own - (Dover Books on Western Philosophy) by Max Stirner (Paperback)

This book is a groundbreaking work of philosophy that challenges the very notion of a common good as the driving force of civilization.

Stirner's in-depth examination of the human ego reveals how it has been oppressed throughout history by various forces, including ancient philosophers, Christianity, monarchism, and the bourgeois state.

Despite being written over 150 years ago, this book remains relevant today as a warning against the encroachment of authority on individual liberty.

With its unparalleled scope and insight, "The Ego and Its Own" is an essential reading for students of political science and philosophy, as well as anyone concerned about the erosion of personal freedom in modern society.
