Jessica N. Berry is Assistant Professor of Philosophy, Georgia State University
"Berry's book is eminently readable, providing many notes of
comparison and contrast, all pointing us toward ancient as opposed
to modern skepticism." --Philosophy in Review
"Nietzsche and the Ancient Skeptical Tradition is rich in content,
carefully argued, and always inspiring. Even though Berry's
interpretation looks somewhat forced at times, it presents an
important new perspective on Nietzsche --given his aversion towards
any self-contained edifice of thought." --Notre Dame Philosophical
Review
"The book addresses a number of central issues in Nietzsche's
philosophy, including perspectivism and his conception of truth.
The idea that his views in these areas owe much to the ancient
Pyrrhonists casts them in an important new light, and is well
supported by the texts. A lot of people from a lot of different
areas in philosophy will have good reason to take notice." -
Richard Bett, Johns Hopkins University
