Reviews

Nietzsche's Therapeutic Teaching brings needed attention to the centrality of the classical theme of philosophy as medicine for the soul to Nietzsche's project and its implications for Nietzsche's philosophical practice. Its rich diversity of essays (by established and younger scholars) makes this a welcome contribution to, and provocative re-orientation of, contemporary Nietzsche studies. -- David Owen, Professor of Social & Political Philosophy, University of Southampton, UK 20130419
