Technical Reason and the Measure of Human, All Too Human Things

Evaluation is always in terms of some criterion.  Thus, decisive to any process of Measurement is the selection of a Measure.  Now, Nietzsche's evaluative criterion, Power, surpasses those of Kant and Utilitarianism, Consistency and Pleasure, respectively, because it is derived from the act of Evaluation itself, which he analyzes is an exercise of the Will to Power.  But, his product betrays the process that produces it.  For, what distinguishes his process of selection from those of his rivals is that it is methodical.  Thus, the product that better expresses that process is not mere Power, but Methodical Power, i. e. Know-How.  But Know-How is the exercise of Technical Reason.  In other words, in Nietzsche's doctrine, Technical Reason is the source of the measure of human, all too human things, as well as its measurer, and its highest value.
