Reviews

The translation is admirable and the translators should be congratulated for their successes.
*The Heythrop Journal*

Arel's and Feuerhahn's translation pays careful heed to Heidegger's linguistic peculiarities while making the text accessible to a non-German readership.
*Hegel Bulletin*

[T]his is an excellent translation of a difficult and sometimes frustrating work by Heidegger.
*Phenomenonological Reviews*
