The listing, Heidegger for Beginners (8-9-1) has ended.
Heidegger for Beginners by Eric Lemay & Jennifer A. Pitts; illustrated by Paul Gordon. "The ideas of the German philosopher Martin Heidegger have been described as an intellectual time bomb, as some of the most revolutionary thought in Western history. Despite the enormous amount of secondary scholarship available on Heidegger, it is--due to the complexity of his thought and the density of his writing--difficult for the curious beginner to gain an insight into his philosophy. (This book) serves as an entry into the ideas of one of the 20th century's most important thinkers, situating Heidegger's thought within its philosophical and historical context--alongside such thinkers as Plato, Descartes, Kant, Nietzsche, Husserl, and Sartre." 120 pg. paperback, 6" X 9", good condition.
