Author Jason Reza Jorgani talks with Michael about the intriguing philosophy of Martin Heidegger. What did Heidegger have against the metaphysical tradition? What is his critique of modernity, and what did he put in the place of coventional rational and materialist models? Subjects discussed include collectivism, time, anxiety, death, the nature of being, the role of language, art and poetry, the importance of culture and nature, and where religion and science go wrong in their conception of human existence, purpose and meaning.
