The Metaphysical Foundations of Logic by Martin Heidegger

Offering a full-scale study of the theory of reality hidden beneath modern logic, The Metaphysical Foundations of Logic, a lecture course given in 1928, illuminates the transitional phase in Heidegger's thought from the existential analysis of Being and Time to the overcoming of metaphysics in his later philosophy. In a searching exposition of the metaphysical problems underpinning Leibniz's theory of logical judgment, Heidegger establishes that a given theory of logic is rooted in a certain conception of Being. He explores the significance of Western logic as a system-building technical tool and as a cultural phenomenon that is centuries old.

". . the most detailed statement of Heidegger's reflections on logic available in English." —Graduate Faculty Philosophy Journal "Heim's excellent translation is eminently readable." —Canadian Philosophical Review "All in all, an extraordinary book." —David Farrell Krell
