This is a wonderfully written and important book for anyone interested in understanding the philosophy and psychology of Nietzche and its application to the human condition. Dr Clemente, in a very clearly written book, shows the importance and relevance of Nietzche to contemporary depth psychology and how Nietzche anticipates much of the depth psychology that came later. This book is fascinating and incredibly relevant for anyone interested in a deeper understanding of the human condition. David Olsen, PhD, LCSW, LMFT, executive director, Samaritan Counseling Center of the Capital District Clemente offers readers a fascinating series of reflections on some of Nietzsche's most important and personal ideas, including his life-long quest to find a path to happiness and even joy in a life marked by great suffering. Retaining the conversational flow of the discussions out of which it springs, this work remains highly accessible to those new to Nietzsche's ideas while also penetrating deeply into their meaning and value for life. Clemente's guidance through the thick but fruitful forest of Nietzsche's thought will prove useful not only for professionals in the field of psychology and social work, but also for anyone seeking meaning and happiness while honestly confronting the full weight of life's trauma and suffering. Thomas P Miles, Programme Director (Research and Practice), Professional Doctorate in Educational and Child Psychology at UEL
