Heidegger: An Introduction

By Jeremy Wisnewski and J. Jeremy Wisnewski

Book Overview

This concise and accessible textbook examines German philosopher Martin Heidegger's entire body of work through the lens of his first and best-known book, Being and Time. An influential, twentieth-century scholar, Heidegger is often studied by opposing his early and later works.

The text features a glossary of Greek, Latin, and English terms and a guide for reading the book in conjunction with Heidegger's writings.
