Kelly Oliver is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Texas and author of Womanizing Nietzsche: Philosophy's Relation to "the feminine" (1995). Marilyn Pearsall is an associate of the Beatrice Bain Research Group at the University of California, Berkeley, and author of Women, Knowledge, and Reality (1989; second edition, 1996).

“The perspectives presented in this anthology are as varied as they are delightful, with selections that will satisfy both ‘continental’ and ‘analytic’ thinkers alike. . . . Nietzsche’s ambiguous, multilayered, and maddeningly ‘veiled’ writings on women (what I call his ‘mirror writing’) continue to reveal the values we hold toward women (and Nietzsche!) by showing us which aphorisms we relate to, which we barely tolerate, and which send the book sailing across the room to thump against the opposite wall. After reading the essays in this volume, I have the feeling less Nietzsche books will be airborne.”—Linda L. Williams APA Newsletter
