A Refreshing and Rethinking Retrieval of Greek Thinking

""Kenneth Maly's book is tour de force of philosophical thinking. Readers should not expect easy answers or straightforward interpretations. Instead they are given a wide intellectual horizon that is opened up by traditions Maly brings together to make the Greek thinking resonate with them and to stimulate a fresh look at fundamental issues that are never out of date.""--Artur Przybyslawski, Professor, Centre for Comparative Studies of Civilisations, Jagiellonian University ""This singular work is a remarkable transversal of ancient Greek thinking, Buddhism, Daoism, and theoretical physics through the perspectives of Nietzsche and especially Heidegger. It is simultaneously a recovery and an advancement of the fundamental, originary concepts that shape both Western and East Asian thinking. Written in an inviting and novel way, this book gives form to the interconnectedness of distinct cultural milieus and ideas based on a common experience and thinking of what is formless.""--Brian Schroeder, Professor of Philosophy, Rochester Institute of Technology ""In your encounter with this book, get ready for an adventure - both a retrieval and rethinking of forgotten truths and a fresh encounter with new ways of seeing. Maly takes us on a journey that is a courageous, authentic engagement with Heideggerian scholarship, quantum physics, and Eastern and ancient Greek philosophy. Keep an open mind and take your time with this book. It is eye-opening and a moving testimonial to innovative ways of thinking.""--Ingrid Leman Stefanovic, Professor Emerita of Philosophy, University of Toronto ""From the deep well of decades of Heidegger research and translation, this latest book from Kenneth Maly is of global import, as it gathers wisdom from both the Western world and the East. Daoism and Buddhism play prominently throughout the book, along with quantum physics. The idea of radiant emptiness is the chief integrating idea from start to finish. It is a deeply resonant pathfinding book, offering a very new way to understand the Greek thinkers.""--David Lee Miller, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, University of Wisconsin-La Crosse
