 A good introduction to Heidegger's thought. March 28, 2002
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
Heidegger's 'Being & Time' is central to his thought, and one of the most important works of philosophy written this centuary, if not ever. It is also terribly written, and utterly impenetrable without some help or A Lot of patience. This book, although inevitably skipping a lot of the detail and being slightly misleading in parts, does a good job of explaining the general gist of Heidegger's project and showing why it is vital today. I can honestly recommend this as life changing if you've never come across it before, but there are guidebooks out there which go into a lot more detail with greater accuracy. A good start on the road to understanding Heidegger.
