The first collection of essays devoted to Heidegger’s contribution to understanding modern science. Although Martin Heidegger is well known for his work on technology, he is not often discussed in the context of science broadly speaking. This volume is the first to showcase diverse perspectives on Heidegger’s assessments of the sciences, looking at a number of different ways that Heidegger’s writings contribute to questions concerning how we understand the world through science. With particular attention to quantum theory, natural science, technoscience, and a section devoted specifically to investigating what Being and Time has to say about science, the book will be of interest to scholars in a wide range of disciplines and traditions. It closes with consideration of questions about sustainability and ethics raised by Heidegger’s engagement with the sciences. “These essays by leading scholars in the field of Heidegger studies are well written, persuasively argued, original, and provide many new insights. Heidegger scholars and scholars in other fields will greatly benefit from this book.” — Holger Zaborowski, Catholic University of America “This book reveals the particular richness of Heidegger’s thought on science, making an important contribution to both the study of Heidegger’s philosophy and the critical analysis of modern science. Cutting edge, it’s at the forefront of philosophical thinking.” — Christian Becker, Pennsylvania State University Trish Glazebrook is Professor of Philosophy and Religion Studies at the University of North Texas and the author of Heidegger’s Philosophy of Science
