In a section of this work entitled "Antithesis," the author advises that the "only responsible course is to deny oneself the ideological misuse of one's own existence," and says one should be modest because there is "shame in still having air to breathe in hell." Another portion says that the only principle of sexual ethics is that "the accuser is always wrong," before the author writes that "the whole is the untrue." The second section opens with the epigraph "where everything is bad, it must be good to know the worst," after the book opens with a Ferdinand Kurnberger quote that "life does not live." Originally written for the 50th birthday of its author's frequent collaborator, this book's title is a play on a work by Aristotle about the "good of man in society." Subtitled as "Reflections from damaged life," it was published two years after its author collaborated on Dialectic of Enlightenment.
