(2013) Nietzsche, truth and transformation, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
Nietzsche's position on truth is a subject of controversy within Nietzsche scholarship. Conflicting interpretations in the literature reflect the existence of ostensibly conflicting statements within the text. Nietzsche's attack on the moral and intellectual culture of his time involves the claim that our beliefs instantiate errors and falsification (TI The Four Great Errors). Notions of error, illusion and deception, however, are not unambiguously negative motifs in Nietzsche's thought (BT 25, HH I: 33, GM III: 19).
