Trish Glazebrook is Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Religion at Colgate University.

"This is a major contribution to the interpretation of Heideggerian philosophy! In five carefully developed and scrupulously documented chapters, Glazebrook (Colgate Univ.) traces Heidegger's view of science beginning with his earliest phase, extending into the 1930s, when he regarded philosophy as "scientific," through a transitional phase, when he turned away from "metaphysics" to "physics," to the 1950s onward, when he asserted that modern natural science is already the basic form of technological thinking. Heidegger's critique of science, Glazebrook shows in detail, forms the backdrop for his evolving understanding of the history of metaphysics. In her final paragraph, Glazebrook accurately summarizes: "I have argued that the issues pertaining to science lie behind Heidegger's rejection of metaphysics, his entanglement with the university, his nostalgia for the Greeks, and his critique of modernity. I have further shown that Heidegger's thinking can be put constructively into dialogue with the analytic tradition of philosophy of science." Clearly written and free of jargon, this reliable account of Heidegger's philosophy of science will take its place alongside the major studies of his philosophy and should be in every library where Heidegger's writings themselves have a place. This reviewer read it with great excitement and learned from every page. Highly recommended; all academic levels and professionals." -Choice
