"To many, a Nietzschean defense of democracy may seem oxymoronic, but Hatab squarely confronts the staunchly antidemocratic tendencies in Nietzsche's writings and offers a surprisingly convincing critique of them based on other aspects of Nietzsche's thought. All who are indebted to Nietzsche for their postmodernism but troubled by his politics will find this a stimulating and illuminating book". -- Bruce Detwiler Author of Nietzsche and the Politics of Aristocratic Radicalism
