(1999) Nietzsche, theories of knowledge, and critical theory I, Dordrecht, Springer.
This collection reflects the philosophic influence and thought of Friedrich Nietzsche with regard to his theory of knowledge in particular and in broad reference to the sciences. If such a conjunction is both new and exciting, it is also not a little controversial. Nietzsche today is increasingly recognized as an important philosophical thinker However, this same recognition is not unproblematic nor indeed (recalling the possibly indeliberate ambiguity of the title of Arthur Danto" s widely read Nietzsche as Philosopher) can it be said that Nietzsche's rôle as philosopher is anything like an accepted one, especially with regard to the critical possibility of knowledge or science, or indeed: critical theory itself.1
