Through the encounters between neo-Kantianism and the life sciences in the nineteenth century, this book explores Nietzsche's naturalism and his understanding of normativity. Proposing specific historical reasons for Nietzsche adopting the views that he did, Emden argues that Nietzsche asked questions about naturalism and normativity that are still relevant today.
