"Heidegger's Introduction to Philosophy--Thinking and Poetizing sheds important light on his thinking in 1944, when the lectures of which it is composed were given. By way of discussing Nietzsche's poems in terms of the distinction between thinking and poetizing, it clarifies both what that distinction is and how it works in Heidegger's thought. Wisely chosen appendices and supplements give further clarification. The translation, by Phillip Jacques Braunstein, is superlative. Braunstein has deep knowledge of Heidegger and of German, and his instincts are unerring. He manages well the inevitable trade-offs between English readability and faithfulness to the German. This will be recognized as one of the best translations of Heidegger into English ever produced. The combination of illuminating texts by Heidegger and the brilliant translation by Braunstein recommend the book for adoption in advanced undergraduate courses." --John McCumber, University of California, Los Angeles, "[This] translation is readable and admirably unobtrusive.
