Beyond Good and Evil: Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future is a book by philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, first published in 1886. In it, Nietzsche attacks past philosophers for their lack of critical sense and their blind acceptance of Christian dogmas. He moves 'beyond good and evil' in the sense of leaving behind the traditional morality which he believes to be a product of historical forces and psychological needs.
