This book concerns itself with an issue that is not sufficiently addressed inthe literature Heideggers philosophy of science. Although a great deal ofattention is paid to Heideggers later critique of technology no one hassystematically studied how he understood science. Many readers will besurprised to learn through this book that Heidegger developed the essentialsof a fairly sophisticated philosophy of science one that in many ways invitescomparison with that of Thomas Kuhn.Glazebrook demonstrates that Heideggers philosophy of science is not neatlydivided into earl and late or Heidegger I and Heidegger II but israther an ongoing development over a least three periods bound together as ananalysis of modern science and an uncovering of other possibilities forunderstanding nature. «
