Reviews

"""Frederick Olafson makes the case sensibly and eloquently that, despite Heidegger's failed personal and political judgments, ""the profoundly original constellation of ideas he introduced in Being and Time can make and important contribution to our understading of the whole ethical side of our lives"" (p.6). His effort in the latter part of the book to build just such a more complete ethical perspective on the ""ground"" of Heidegger's fundamental ontology is thoughtful and interesting., if less compelling because so syncretistic. Still, Olafson's philosophical project is an important one which deserves the attention and efforts of others."" Review of Metaphysics"
