It does so through a detailed analysis of canonical texts and recently published primary sources on two crucial concepts in Heideggerâs later thought: \u003ci\u003eGelassenheit\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eGestell\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eGelassenheit\u003c\/i\u003e, translated as âreleasementâ, and \u003ci\u003eGestell\u003c\/i\u003e, often translated as âenframingâ, stand as opposing ideas in Heideggerâs work whereby the meditative thinking of \u003ci\u003eGelassenheit \u003c\/i\u003ecounters the dangers of our technological framing of the world in \u003ci\u003eGestell\u003c\/i\u003e. After opening with a scholarly overview of Heideggerâs philosophy of technology as a whole, this volume focuses on important Heideggerian critiques of science, technology, and modern industrialized society as well as Heideggerâs belief that transformations in our thought processes enable us to resist the restrictive domain of modern techno-scientific practice. Key themes discussed in this collection include: the history, development, and defining features of modern technology; the relationship between scientific theories and their technological instantiations; the nature of human agency and the essence of education in the age of technology; and the ethical, political, and environmental impact of our current techno-scientific customs. This volume also addresses the connection between Heideggerâs critique of technology and his involvement with the Nazis. Finally, and with contributions from a number of renowned Heidegger scholars, the original essays in this collection will be of great interest to students of Philosophy, Technology Studies, the History of Science, Critical Theory, Environmental Studies, Education, Sociology, and Political Theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"This volume is a valuable resource that I highly recommend for those wanting to learn more about, and engage critically with, Heidegger's philosophy of technology.\"\u003c\/strong\u003e – \u003ci\u003eDavid R.
