The New Heidegger (Continuum Studies in Continental Philosophy) - Softcover

"'This is exactly what we need. I would well imagine it becoming the standard introduction to Heldegger.' Professor Robert Bernasconi, Memphis University 'There really is not anything like this book currently available. There really is a need for 'New Heidegger' and this will be the standard introduction to it.' Professor David Wood, Vanderbilt University"

Martin Heidegger's work is pivotal in the history of modern European philosophy. The New Heidegger presents a comprehensive and stimulating overview of, and introduction to, the work of one of the most influential and controversial philosophers of our time. Heidegger has had an extraordinary impact on contemporary philosophical and extra-philosophical life: on deconstruction, hermeneutics, ontology, technology and techno-science, art and architecture, politics, psychotherapy, and ecology. The New Heidegger takes a thematic approach to Heidegger's work, covering not only the seminal Being and Time, but also Heidegger's lesser known works. Lively, clear and succinct, the book requires no prior knowledge of Heidegger and is an essential resource for anyone studying or teaching the work of this major modern philosopher.
