Title: Strathern's Cute Little Series is Getting Worse
Product review: Strathern's books appeal to two main types of readers: (1) Curious newbies who would like to dip their feet in philosophy and/or science; and (2) Lazy intellectuals who want to learn everything about everything without doing any real work. Either group will be ill-served by this book, which treats important ideas in a smug and cursory manner. The best introduction to Nietzsche is probably "The Gay Science", by Nietzsche himself. He's a much more powerful, disturbing, and beautiful writer than Strathern would have you believe.
