Book
A very fine piece of research and argument. This book reads Nietzsche againstthe grain since it challenges both a fair bit of what Nietzsche explicitlysays about his own beliefs as well as the interpretations that thesepronouncements have inspired. But it does so successfully for Shaw questionsthose pronouncements in the name of what is probably Nietzsches strongestdrivehis relentless truthseeking.Bernard Yack Brandeis UniversityTamsin Shaw offers us a notable contribution to our understanding of Nietzscheas a political thinker. It has become standard to think that Nietzsche lacked aserious or at least an interesting political philosophy. That conventionalwisdom encourages the treatment of his many comments about politics and cultureas digressions from his central philosophical concerns. This book is the mostcompelling challenge to date against that conventional wisdom.R. LanierAnderson Stanford University «
