This volume belongs in every collection on Heidegger and is required reading for anyone interested in this major thinker.
* Religious Studies Review *In Albert Hofstadter's excellent translation, we can listen in as Heidegger clearly and patiently explains . . . the ontological difference.
* Times Literary Supplement *Perhaps the most generally accessible text that Heidegger published. . . . The translation is superb.
* Key Reporter *For all students and scholars, Basic Problems will provide the "missing link" between Husserl and Heidegger, between phenomenology and Being and Time.
