Reviews

""This translation makes available for the first time in English a series of Heidegger's pivotal reflections on the overcoming of metaphysics, grounded in the thesis that the essence of metaphysics is nihilism. Containing important remarks on Being and Time and other early texts, this volume will be essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the inner development of Heidegger's thought in the decade from 1938 to 1948."" William McNeill, Professor of Philosophy, DePaul University, Chicago ""This volume is a welcome addition to the translation of Heidegger's 'private monographs' from the late 1930s and 1940s. Elegantly translated, it is essential reading for anyone interested in Heidegger's views on the consummation of metaphysics in techno-scientific nihilism, the role of Being and Time in the overcoming of metaphysics, and the task of thinking in the age of the 'abandonment of being.'"" Miguel de Beistegui, ICREA Research Professor of Philosophy, University of Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona
