Abstract:
Anas Karzai's timely book emphasizes how modern progressive sociological and political thought including the work of Weber, Adorno, and Foucault, is based on an often unacknowledged debt to Nietzsche. Karzai's book highlights how Nietzsche's observation of the human condition in modernity is to be read as an affirmative critique.
