Levy covers the philosopher's life and his contributions to the history of religion, philosophical biology, philosophical anthropology, ethics and theology. Jonas's work is situated in relation to that of his first intellectual mentor, Martin Heidegger, as well as that of such related thinkers as Eric Voegelin. Setting Jonas's work in the context of his life and times, Levy summarizes Jonas's original achievements in fields as apparently diverse as the history of ancient Gnosticism, the philosophical significance of biology, the problems of ethics in a technological age and the mysteries of theology, while demonstrating the notable unity of theme and purpose that guided his various fields of inquiry. Jonas's work should become increasingly significant in the years ahead as we face the problems produced by current developments in technology such as biological engineering. Such issues were of particular interest for him, and he was unique among his philosophical contemporaries in devoting attention to them. His writings on these themes bring wisdom and commonsense anchored in Jonas's own historical and biographical experience of the fragility of human life and the common good. Having begun his life in Germany between the world wars, he later served in the British army throughout the struggle against Hitler and lost his mother at Auschwitz. This book aims to provide a single, coherent overview of the various fields to which Jonas's attention was drawn, bringing out the unified, systematic quality of Jonas's philosophical approach.
