The Ego and His Own: The Case of the Individual Against Authority (Dover Books on Western Philosophy)

The "Sixth and Final Book" by Max Stirner is a groundbreaking work that challenges the very notion of a common good as the driving force of civilization.

This prophetic 1844 book chronicles the battle of the individual against the collective, exposing how throughout history, the latter has led to oppression.

With a focus on the individual ego, Stirner traces its subjugation from ancient times to the nineteenth century, indicting influential philosophers, religions, monarchies, and even revolutions.

Despite being written over a century ago, Stirner's predictions about socialism and totalitarianism are eerily relevant today.

This book is essential reading for students of political science and philosophy, as well as anyone concerned about the encroachment of authority upon individual liberty.

Don't miss out on this unsurpassed philosophical masterpiece that will challenge your views and inspire you to take action.
