The Ego And His Own

The Ego and His Own is a philosophical work by Max Stirner, first published in 1844. The book is a critique of traditional morality, religion, and politics, and advocates for individualism and egoism as the highest values. Stirner argues that individuals should reject all external authorities and embrace their own self-interest and desires as the only true guide to life. He asserts that the concept of the ""self"" is the only true reality, and that individuals should strive to maximize their own power and freedom. The book has been influential in the development of anarchist and individualist thought, and has been praised for its radical and uncompromising critique of traditional social structures. However, it has also been criticized for its rejection of social responsibility and its potential for promoting selfishness and amorality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
