• Sommario/riassunto: Prof. Peery offers new interpretations of Nietzsche?s ideas regarding power, values, nature, contrariety, and language, truth and deception, religion, experience, sexuality and sexual politics ? that could provide new and provocative approaches toward dealing with the rising menace of war. She shows that had Nietzsche directly focussed on questions concerning war, his interpretations of its destructive, corrosive nature would have matched his critique of Christianity in substance and intensity.
