"This is, first, a brilliantly devastating account of Nietzsche as a man and as philosopher... It is, secondly, an even more devastating account of how the official apologists of National Socialism... distorted, falsified, and suppressed him. Every one of Mr. Brinton's pages is a fresh demonstration of A, really superb talent for critical mockery." - a review on the front flap.

"There is probably no other book on Nietzche written with the same expert knowledge, the same incisive brevity, and the sparkling though slightly irreverent style... A most enlightening contribution to our own time." - another review on the front flap.
