Reviews
'David Wood writes a poineering passion and reflective patience worthy of Heidegger himself. This is the sort of book that give continental philosophy a good name.' -- Richard Kearney, Boston College
'This is a fascinating book. Its appeal to those doing research on Heidegger, phenomenology and deconstruction will be strong, and it is likely to form a major reference point for future discussion.' Stephen Mulhall, New College, Oxford
