This volume belongs in every collection on Heidegger and is required reading for anyone interested in this major thinker.
In Albert Hofstadter's excellent translation, we can listen in as Heidegger clearly and patiently explains . . . the ontological difference.
Perhaps the most generally accessible text that Heidegger published. . . . The translation is superb.
For all students and scholars, Basic Problems will provide the "missing link" between Husserl and Heidegger, between phenomenology and Being and Time.
Albert Hofstadter is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at the University of California, Santa Cruz. His translation of Heidegger's Poetry, Language, Thought received a National Book Award.
