Summary:

This volume capitalises on a growth of interest in Nietzsche's work on morality from historians of philosophy and from ethical theorists. In 11 essays, leading philosophers aim both to advance philosophical understanding of Nietzsche's ethical views and to make Nietzsche a live participant in debates in ethics and related fields.
