Reviews

‘An audacious work in digital humanities scholarship, Nietzsche's Moral Psychology is interesting not simply because it offers well-argued rereadings of Nietzsche's classic works in moral psychology, but also because of its semantic network methodology … Alfano's fresh approach to the Nietzschean virtues - expanded here to include courage, curiosity, the pathos of distance, and the ability to laugh - are especially insightful.’ J. G. Moore, Choice ‘Alfano's virtue-theoretic reading is a stimulating and original contribution to the lively debate about Nietzsche's moral psychology. Everyone interested in that debate should read his book.’ Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
