解説

Rethinks of science through Nietzsche's philosophy, revealing knowledge as an aesthetic, life-driven act shaped by interpretation rather than absolute truth.

What is the role of science when its claims to truth are no longer self-evident? In Nietzsche's Philosophy of Science, Babette Babich offers a bold and provocative rethinking of modern scientific rationality through the philosophical lens of Friedrich Nietzsche.

Rather than treating science as a self-justifying system of objective truths, Babich argues that it must be understood as an interpretive, aesthetic, and ultimately life-bound practice-one shaped by style, physiology, and cultural values. Drawing on Nietzsche's critique of truth, morality, and metaphysics, she reframes scientific knowledge as a perspectival achievement rooted in the conditions of life itself.

Across seven richly argued chapters, Babich develops a sustained engagement with questions at the heart of contemporary philosophy of science: What counts as validity? Can objectivity be separated from interpretation? And what happens when science is viewed not as the final arbiter of truth, but as one expression of human creativity?

Nietzsche's Philosophy of Science challenges readers to rethink the foundations of knowledge, placing science in dialogue with art, aesthetics, and the lived conditions of experience. The result is a powerful reconsideration of philosophy's task in an age of epistemic uncertainty.
