"A wealth of philosophically insightful, intellectually
provocative, and scholarly impressive accounts."--Teaching
Philosophy
"Very helpful compilation of interpretations of Nietzsche--all of
which are both useful in understanding Nietzsche and provocative in
themselves."--Manuel Davenport, Texas A&M University
"An excellent collection of essays; very intelligently conceived.
The emphasis on individual works makes it a valuable companion to
Nietzsche's own writings."--Donald Rutherford, Emory University
"An invaluable aid to students who, as the editors note, 'read one
book at a time.'...By treating each book separately and focusing on
the strengths, weaknesses, and coherence of each individual work,
this collection of accessible essays may prove more useful to
first-time readers of Nietzsche than anthologies which address
Nietzsche thematically or topically....This anthology is
enthusiastically recommended for all undergraduate and graduate
collections."--Choice
"The most distinguished commentators on Nietzsche active
today....The aim has been to produce a volume that will be of
assistance primarily to students in the earlier stages of their
study of Nietzsche, and in this, I think, it must surely be
accounted a success."--German Studies Review
