Hans Pedersen has made an important and timely contribution to Heidegger studies with his interpretation of human agency in Heidegger’s early period. Combining meticulous research with clear and lively prose, Pedersen brings Heidegger’s views on free will and responsibility into conversation with mainstream Anglophone philosophy and illuminates how influential and groundbreaking Heidegger’s insights on these matters have been. I envision Agency, Freedom, and Responsibility in the Early Heidegger will be a key text in the philosophy of action for years to come.
