An excellent copy of this philosophical study. A volume in the SUNY Series in Contemporary Continental Philosophy. Binding is solid and sturdy. Interior is crisp, clean, and free of marks. Interior of the back cover has a small square where the endpaper is torn, likely a production error. This issue has no structural impact on the book. Dust jacket has some light overall scuffing. Bottom corners have been bumped, as has the bottom of the spine. Top and bottom edges of the spine have some light wear. DJ is now wrapped in brodart for protection. A great overall copy of this text.

Leading scholars address the ethical and practical dimensions of Heidegger's thought.
Heidegger has often been reproached for his alleged neglect of practical issues, specifically his "inability" to propose or articulate an ethics or politics. This book investigates the extent to which Heidegger's thought can be read as a crucial resource for practical philosophy and the articulation of an ethos for our time. Leading scholars from around the world offer a sustained and intensive focus on Heidegger's thought of praxis, working through such motifs as freedom, the possibility of ethics, the political, responsibility, community, nihilism, technology and the contemporary ethos, among others. Ultimately, this volume reveals the practical senses of ontology, and the ontological senses of praxis by exhibiting the practicality of Being itself.
