(1986) Nietzsche as affirmative thinker, Dordrecht, Springer.
Both Nietzsche's "moral intentions" and the practical objective of his philosophizing have to do with helping us recognize our power and use it creatively in authentic patterns of life. His moral theory of power ultimately turns out to be the hub in which all his earlier and later views "become…more and more firmly attached to one another,…entwined and interlaced with one another" (GM V:2). This logical and ideational interrelation of central Nietzschean concepts and motives transforms what would seem at first to be a loosely connected and aphoristic work into a positive and comprehensive philosophy and psychology of power — one which can be discussed coherently.
