There were some interesting ideas raised in this book. Most are par for the course, and are brought up in most Nietzsche books I've read but it gives a good overview of a fair number of his ideas. If you haven't read Nietzsche before and want an "intro" book to read before tackling his larger works this is a great book for that.
