Summary:

"Nietzsche and "An Architecture of Our Minds" focuses on his seminal ideas about architecture, both actual and metaphorical, and the creative responses they elicited. In this volume, twelve contributors from a variety of disciplines provide fresh readings of the scattered, aphoristic fragments that Nietzsche devoted to the art of building and consider their impact on artists, writers, and architects."--Jacket.
