Nietzsche's Anthropic Circle: Man, Science, and Myth

The book delves into Nietzsche's critique of "anthropomorphic truth" in language and science, examining his use of anthropic analogies and the concept of a universal "will to power." It explores Nietzsche's relationship with Kant's knowledge analysis, highlighting his unique perspectival interpretation of knowledge versus truth. The author discusses Nietzsche's instrumental fictionalism, linking it to contemporary American philosophy of science, and contrasts his proto-structuralist views with modern linguistic theories. Ultimately, the work argues for a nuanced understanding of Nietzsche's psychology while distinguishing it from cosmic implications.
