It's $1, you should read it to examine the root level of everything you were conditioned to think and believe

This is the only translation I've read, so I have nothing to compare it with. I'm glad I read it, you can see where his ideas have contributed to Western Civilization and how his ideas were ripped off by everyone from Biblical writers to the US founding fathers. The style takes a bit to get used to, it's all in the form of a long-winded account of an overly polite conversation instead of a concise manifesto. While it's kind of annoying to have to shovel through that much prose, it's hard to image how else he could convey the nuances of his ideas without all the literary devices and chatter, some of which is still pretty funny. The introduction was informative. For $1, you can't go wrong.
