investigating how themes and approaches in Baudrillard's Consumer Society Simulacra and
Simulations and Symbolic Exchange and Death resonate with Nietzsche's On the Genealogy of
Morals. This book fills a gap in the limited literature available on the relation between
Baudrillard's thought to that of Nietzsche and Heidegger. Baudrillard with Nietzsche and
Heidegger: A Contrastive Analysis is essential reading for students and scholars of continental
philosophy sociology and cultural theory.
