Heidegger, Dasein, and Gender - Thinking the Unthought

This book takes Heidegger to task on gender by assessing his views on women as thinkers and exploring what his work offers to contemporary LGBTQ+ and women's studies. The authors aim not to provide final answers, but to open possibilities for further thinking with, on, against, through, and because of Heidegger.
