A short book Nietzsche wrote in 1888 and published in January 1889, subtitled 'How to Philosophize with a Hammer'. It opens with a series of sharp aphorisms, 'Maxims and Arrows' (titled 'Maxims and Missiles' in Ludovici's translation), before turning to Socrates, morality and the culture of his day.
