From the Back Cover

The eleven essays in Critical Heidegger first appeared in the much admired, four volume set, Martin Heidegger: Critical Assessments, also edited by Christopher Macann. Critical Heidegger brings together in a more accessible form a selection of the best work on Martin Heidegger from a number of key commentators working in Europe. Many of the essays are translated from German and French originals - not previously available in the English language - and are an essential guide to the current European reception of Heidegger. The work presented in Critical Heidegger represents the future of Heidegger studies and will have a considerable impact on English-language Heidegger studies.
