Reviews
For readers still attempting not only to penetrate the enigmatic darkness into which one of our greatest philosophers withdrew but also to understand the politics of National Socialism and gain some insight into its cultural genealogy, [Richard Wolin's] The Politics of Being and The Heidegger Controversy will surely prove to be as illuminating as they are thought provoking and unsettling. I highly recommend them. -- David Michael Levin Political Theory An important and valuable contribution to the literature on Heidegger's political thought. -- Mitchell Aboulafia International Studies in Philosophy Wolin's important new book is the most definitive treatment in English of the political resonances of Heidegger's destruction of metaphysics.
