Nietzsche's Critiques The Kantian Foundations of His Thought [Hardcover]

Kevin Hill presents a highly original study of Nietzsche's thought, the first book to examine in detail his debt to the work of Kant. Hill argues that Nietzsche is a systematic philosopher who knew Kant far better than is commonly thought, and that he can only be properly understood in relation to him.Nietzsche's Critiqueswill be of great value to scholars and students with interests in either of these philosophical giants, or in the history of ideas generally.
