"The political background to the debate between Martin Heidegger and Emmanuel Levinas has often distorted the philosophical dispute … Fortunately, this volume approaches the debate with a clear view of the philosophical issue. It avoids polemically misconstruing Heidegger's thought without making light of Levinas's modification of it." — Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
