Reviews

This is the first in-depth treatment of the pre-metaphysical dimension of Greek thought from a loosely Heideggerian perspective. The quality here is in the contributors that Jacobs has assembled-in general the best figures for such a project among American continental philosophers with additional contributions from abroad. - Tom Davis, Whitman College The list of contributors-from Heidegger himself, through Gadamer, Serres, and Courtine, to the very best of Heidegger's American readers-will secure a wide readership for this volume. These readers will not be disappointed. - Robert Bernasconi, The University of Memphis
