  7. Abstract:
  8. This thesis is going to investigate the ontological foundation of Science and Tool. To this aim, it refers to Heidegger’s works especially the Being and time. Heidegger gets involve in analyzing Science in the Being and Time. He emphasizes on importance of establishment of a fundamental knowledge which should ontologically recognize basic concepts and methods of Sciences, to cause a real progress in sciences. Heidegger also asserts that the Mathematical interpretation of the world is not a fundamental, and it must be replaced with phenomenological interpretation, which clarifies the ontological foundation of the theoretical view, and regards to all aspects of world’s existence. In this thesis, it is tried to present an ontological interpretation about scientific research on the basis of Heidegger’s thought, this interpretation not only considers the scientist’s communication in scientific societies but also describes how a scientific object constitute and how scientific and metaphysical propositions form. According to the Heidegger’s view, in the theoretical view, Nature is converted to a theoretical object under an A-priori framework. This opinion which is also presented clearly in the Heidegger’s later works has been evaluated in this thesis. Besides the Science, Heidegger has also meditated on the tool and technology. According to his viewpoint, human reveals the Nature in a specific way to produce tools, and desired tools are the one that their production would not implicate conflictual Nature revealing. At the end of this research, on the basis of Heidegger’s various meditations, a schema about desired world and undesired one is presented
