The Deed is Everything: Nietzsche on Will and Action
Oxford, United Kingdom: Oxford University Press (2018)
Abstract
The Deed is Everything offers an engaging new interpretation of Nietzsche as committed to an 'expressivist' conception of agency. Aaron Ridley shows that Nietzsche develops highly distinctive accounts of freedom, morality, and selfhood, with a robust commitment to the value of human excellence in all of its forms.Author's Profile
