It may seem strange to include Martin Heidegger in a series of books dealing with "Makers of Contemporary Theology", for Heidegger is no theologian but a philosopher, and he is often reckoned to be a thoroughly secular philosopher at that.Yet I think it would be true to say that one could hardly hope to advance very far in the understanding of contemporary theology without some knowledge of Heidegger's thought. His influence seems to appear everywhere-in demythologizing and the problem of hermeneutics; in the doctrine of man; in theories of revelation; in the debate about God; and in other matters besides. Though not himself a theologian, he is a maker of theology, in the same way in which Plato and Aristotle and Kant have been makers of theology. So we make no excuse for including him in this series.Heidegger's philosophy is no substitute for Christian theology, and certainly it should not be allowed to dominate the work of the theologian, but it does provide the kind of conceptual framework that the theologian needs if he is to state the Christian faith in terms intelligible to today's world.''何光沪：“这位大师[布尔特曼]还称赞麦奎利对海德格尔“常常很难理解的思想”，具有“简明清晰地展开呈现的罕见才能”。确实，笔者在多年前读到麦奎利写的小册子《海德格尔》（Martin Heidegger）时，那感觉就好像一颗费了很多力气却敲不开的核桃，被他轻松地剥开，并把分成两半的核仁，送到了我的嘴边！”
