The Will to Power

A posthumous compilation of Friedrich Nietzsche's notes assembled by his sister Elisabeth — presenting the will to power concept as the fundamental drive underlying all human motivation — whose intellectual legitimacy is disputed as Elisabeth manipulated the selection.

Articulates the will to power as the fundamental life force — not a will to dominate others but the drive to self-overcoming, to expand one's capacity — though its status as representative of Nietzsche's thought is compromised by Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche's editorial manipulations.
