Duane Armitage masterfully deploys Girard to show that Nietzsche, Heidegger, and the continental and postmodern philosophy that are based on their ideas are rooted in an unacknowledged celebration of ritual violence, one explicitly formulated in terms of power in Nietzsche and less transparently in Heidegger's critique of reason, metaphysics, and theology. --DAVID H. CALHOUN, professor of philosophy, Gonzaga University
