"What is the meaning of being?" This is the central question of
Martin Heidegger's profoundly important work, in which the great
philosopher seeks to explain the basic problems of existence. A
central influence on later philosophy, literature, art, and
criticism—as well as existentialism and much of postmodern
thought—Being and Time forever changed the intellectual map of the
modern world. As Richard Rorty wrote in the New York Times Book
Review, "You cannot read most of the important thinkers of recent
times without taking Heidegger's thought into account." This first
paperback edition of John Macquarrie and Edward Robinson's definitive
translation also features a new foreword by Heidegger scholar Taylor
Carman.
