Synopsis
Claimed repeatedly to be the most radical book ever written, The Ego And Its Own throws down a challenge to thousands of years of religious, philosophical and political depreciation of the individual. Criticising all doctrines and beliefs that demand the interests of the individual be subordinated to those of God, state, humanity, society, or some other fiction, Stirner declared war on all creeds that threatened individuality. In doing so, he championed a form of amoral egoism which still provokes cries of horror from moralists of right and left, religious and secular. The classic, from one of the founding fathers of anarchist thought, and a passionate defence of the individual against all forms of authority.

Book Description
Attacking Feuerbach, Moses Hess and others to sound the death-knell of Left Hegelianism, The Ego and its Own (1844) constitutes an enduring critique of liberalism and socialism from the perspective of an extreme eccentric individualism. This edition includes an Introduction that places Stirner in his historical context.
From the Back Cover
This edition of Stirner's work comprises a revised version of Steven Byington's much-praised translation, together with an introduction and notes on the historical background to Stirner's text.
