Jimmy Burke just gave a presentation this past September at the Nietzschean Society, which met this year in Belfast. We discussed his lecture, entitled, "An Economy of Bodies", as well as his work in evidence-based behavior change. According to Burke, Nietzsche's insights have proven incredibly valuable in this field, and by drawing on Nietzsche's conceptions of drive, we can improve our chances in making transformative life changes. At the end of the episode we discussed his expansive, ontological view of will to power. Great conversation! I really enjoyed this one.
