Rather than simply explaining his thought, it instead asks: what would Nietzsche make of us? What would he think of our 21st-century, digital age? In our time of identity politics, therapy culture, 'safe spaces', religious fundamentalism, virtue-signalling, Twitterstorms, public emoting, 'dumbing-down', digital addiction and the politics of envy, the book introduces Nietzsche by putting the man in our shoes. \u003cem\u003eGet Over Yourself\u003c\/em\u003e both uses Nietzsche's philosophy to understand our society, and takes our society to explain his philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWest, Patrick:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003ePatrick West is a journalist and author who has written for \u003cem\u003eThe Times Literary Supplement\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Spectator\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe New Statesman\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Catholic Herald\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eTablet\u003c\/em\u003e.
