'… in rethinking, re-articulating and re-orienting the inheritance of Heidegger's thought, the authors have put together an excellent collection of masterly essays, [one] that is characterized throughout by an intense critical and specialist engagement with Heidegger's oeuvre. Heidegger scholars will find much that is relevant to the persistent, continuing philosophical discussions on Heidegger.' Philosophy in Review
