Nietzsche, Truth and Transformation (Hardcover)

Nietzsche scholarship has fallen into the trap of taking seriously either the epistemological or the existential import of Nietzsche's views on truth at the neglect of the other, obscuring a full understanding of Nietzsche's philosophy, and the potential of his methodology to contribute to the problem of how we can effect deliberate transformation. "Nietzsche, Truth and Transformation" addresses this gap by treating both these dimensions of Nietzsche's approach to truth in depth and considering their interrelation. It addresses the philosophical problem of on what basis, if knowledge is always from a perspective, one can criticise modern humanity and culture, and how such critique can be actively responded to. As well as providing a novel interpretation of Nietzsche's philosophical method, this book shows the continuing relevance of Nietzsche for contemporary debates in epistemology and to concerns for cultural and social change.
