Nietzsche's Philosophy of Action

This is the penultimate draft of an essay for The Blackwell Companion to the Philosophy of Action being edited by Timothy O'Connor and Constantine Sandis, that should be out in 2010. I am still working on the issues here (and have worked on them previously, as some readers will recognize), and welcome comments (here)--especially since there were significant space constraints in this piece, which will be less of a factor in the work-in-progress on these themes.  But this short piece may be useful for those with a passing interest in Nietzsche, who want to locate his views in philosophical space.
