Heidegger's Alternative History of Time

This book reconstructs Heidegger's philosophy of time by engaging with Heidegger's own critical analysis of time in the history of Western thought. It explains what makes time of such significance for Heidegger and argues that Heidegger can contribute to contemporary debates in philosophy of time.
