180 p. "Is it possible to found a Heideggerian ethic around the notion of a relationship to being (Bezug zum Seyn)? Going against much of the Western tradition, Gupta considers if the being-relationship could result in a feeling or mystical experience that is the basis of ethics. Along the way, such an affective and embodied approach to ethics brings us into dialogue with a range of thinkers, such as Kant and Schweitzer. Further, it is suggested that an environmental philosophy is consistent with a Heideggerian ethics. Finally, recent research in the neurosciences is marshaled to at least show the plausibility of Heidegger's brand of moral realism as it is developed." -- Prologue: A Heideggerian ethics and yesterday -- Ends and origins -- Ethical thinking -- Back to before Kant -- Romanticism revisited -- Ethics and time -- Ontological similarity -- Kant's conundrum -- Hegel's aesthetics -- Schweitzer's ethics -- A Heideggerian rebuttal of ethical relativism -- Heidegger and ethical naturalism -- Prospects for moral realism.
