Nietzsche and Science explores the German philosopher's response to
the extraordinary cultural impact of the natural sciences in the
late nineteenth century. It argues that the science of his day
exerted a powerful influence on his thought and provided an
important framework within which he articulated his ideas. The
first part of the book investigates Nietzsche's knowledge and
understanding of specific disciplines and the influence of
particular scientists on Nietzsche's thought. The second part
examines how Nietzsche actually incorporated various scientific
ideas, concepts and theories into his philosophy, the ways in which
he exploited his reading to frame his writings, and the
relationship between his understanding of science and other key
themes of his thought, such as art, rhetoric and the nature of
philosophy itself.
