Book Synopsis
Friedrich Nietzsche is one of the most elusive thinkers in the philosophical tradition. Nonetheless, certain readings of his work have become standard and influential. This title challenges various traditional views, taking the philosopher at his word when he says that his writing can best be understood as a kind of psychology.

Trade Review
"Pippin presents a much-needed new approach and appreciation of Nietzsche.... [He] adroitly starts fresh with Nietzsche, considering his work holistically and in the context of both early psychology and 19th-century French morality. In his novel reading, Pippin exposes, the folly of underappreciating Nietzsche's irony and self-criticism." (Choice)"
