Perhaps the best collection of essays on Heidegger ever published. This book is endlessly rewarding: I've been reading it almost continually since I received it and have been deeply impressed by the quality of the 31 essays collected here (by the likes of Crowell, Dahlstrom, Sluga, Sheehan, Lafont, Carman, Mulhall, Blattner, Wrathall, Polt, Guignon, Dreyfus, Borgmann, Taylor, Rorty, and several emerging young scholars), all but 5 of which are new (and Taylor's, reprinted here, is revised). The essays break new ground rather than consolidate past insights, which makes for very exciting, provocative, and rewarding reading (550 pp. worth!). When this comes out in paperback (Blackwell is really profit maximizing here...), it is sure to become one of the most significant and widely read works in the field. I can't recommend it highly enough.
