Description
Heidegger's magnum opus, first translated into English in 1962, is now available to readers in the UK. This fundamental work of philosophy explores the nature of existence and time, presenting a unique perspective that has had a profound impact on modern thought.
The difficulty of Heidegger's thought was once considered insurmountable due to the language barrier, but this translation by John Macquarrie and Edward Robinson has made his ideas accessible to English-speaking readers. The result is a work that retains the richness and poetic subtlety of the original while conveying Heidegger's complex concepts in a clear and concise manner.
For those interested in philosophy and metaphysics, this book offers a unique insight into the nature of existence and time. With 589 pages, it provides a comprehensive exploration of Heidegger's thought that is essential for anyone seeking to understand recent continental work in theology and philosophy.
