Description
Book SynopsisHeidegger's most important thinking of his later career
Trade ReviewIn the end, this volume represents an indisputable contribution to English language Heidegger scholarship, rendered in an accessible yet faithful translation, and provides an unparalleled introduction into Heidegger's views on science, technology, language, and thinking, as well as the later period of his thought as a whole. This volume is an essential contribution to the discipline and is one which can be readily used with students who are approaching Heidegger for the first time as well as those more familiar with the trajectory and subtle modifications of Heidegger's thought throughout his career. Mitchell's translation is superbly readable and will be the standard for years to come.
