Nihilism is the logic of unmaking of things. This text re-reads Western history in the light of nihilistic logic, which pervades two millennia of Western thought.

Trade Review

'This is an audacious work and it is difficult to do justice to the complexity of the argument or the subtlety of the terms invoked. However, this work also sparkles with simplicity ... Overall this is a dazzling performance ... It provides an important addition to the literature on nihilism.' - Marcus Pound, Reviews in Religion and Theology
