Daniel Conway

Reviews

"Conway's picture of Nietzsche's plolitcial thought is thoughtful and careful."
-Michael W. Grenke "The Review of Metaphysics, Sept 1998
"Conway makes a convincing and extended case for taking Nietzsche seriously as a moral philosopher, not just a critic of modern morality ... [Conway] addresses the difficult issues directly and in straight-forward prose. An impressive achievement."
-Tracy B. Strong, University of California at San Diego
