Abstract
David Toole has written a provocative book. On an academic level, the wide-ranging erudition and tight argumentation would impress any scholar. However, to respond to this book simply as an academic exercise would be a grave misunderstanding of its purpose. This book confronts the fact that "we live now not in a world fueled by Enlightenment dreams of unity and peace and progress but in a fractured, fragmented world of endless and often escalating conflicts" (3) and acknowledges that far "too many corpses lie strewn across the terrain of the last three centuries" (3). Drawing heavily on Nietzsche's work, this book explores the philosophical and theological underpinnings of that incompatibility.
