Joan Stambaugh's translations of the works of Heidegger, accomplished with his guidance, have made key aspects of his thought and philosophy accessible to readers of English for many years. This collection, writes Stambaugh, contains Heidegger's attempt "to show the history of Being as metaphysics," combining three chapters from the philosopher's Nietzsche ("Metaphysics as a History of Being," "Sketches for a History of Being as Metaphysics," and "Recollection in Metaphysics") with a selection from Vorträge und Aufsätze ("Overcoming Metaphysics").

4.0 out of 5 stars fate, July 5, 2009
By 
Bruce P. Barten (Saint Paul, MN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The End of Philosophy (Paperback)
I was surprised to find the end of this book mentioned in a footnote about the kind of problems the global financial system runs into when everyone pursues activities that generate income without creating some form of wealth. Extraction was a concept that was compared to crime by Clive Dilnot [The New School, USA] in "The Triumph - and costs - of Greed (Part I)." Just looking at the mess that Heidegger can spin around "All of this is already hitched into the armament mechanism of the plan." (Overcoming Metaphysics XXVI, p. 103) is uncanny. It is really heading toward: "This use is employed for the utility of armaments. In that in the unconditionality of escalation and of self-guaranteeing armament runs out and in truth has aimlessness as its aim, the using is a using up."
