Description for Nietzsche on Epistemology and Metaphysics: The World in View
Hardback. A unique and controversial study of Nietzsche's philosophy in relation to Kantian methodologies. Num Pages: 216 pages. BIC Classification: HPK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 163 x 235 x 18. Weight in Grams: 484.

The author claims, contentiously, that both Nietzsche's early and late writings may be understood as responses to Kant's constitutive-regulative distinction at the level of epistemology and to his treatment of force and efficient causality at the level of metaphysics.

Her awareness of the issues and philosophical scholarship are exemplary, and her conclusions throw fresh light on the specific nature of Nietzsche's indebtedness ... Read more
