Summary:	"Martin Heidegger's writings are among the most formidable of recent philosophy. The pivotal concepts of his thought are for many the source of both fascination and frustration. Yet any student of philosophy--or of contemporary thought in general--needs to become acquainted with Heidegger's hugely influential ideas. Martin Heidegger : Key Concepts is designed to facilitate this. Each chapter introduces and explains a key Heideggerian concept, or a cluster of closely related concepts, and together the chapters cover the full range of Heidegger's thought in its early, middle and later phases. The book provides both a comprehensive introduction to Heidegger's work for the beginning student and an accessible reference for more advanced readers interested in particular aspects of Heidegger's thought."--P. [4] of cover.
