A Finite Thinking by Jean-Luc Nancy
This collection of philosophical essays interrogates key notions and preoccupations of the phenomenological tradition. While using Heidegger's "Being and Time" as its point of reference and dispute, the book also confronts other philosphers, such as Kant, Nietzche and Derrida.-

"This book is a splendid demonstration of the many joys of thinking about thought itselfThe finitude highlighted in the title applies to the concepts of thinking that Nancy expertly and adroitly elucidates: sense, sacrifice, existence, presence, love, the body. Nancy shows us that thinking is not a chess game of large, ungainly abstract pieces; it is a dance of specificity much akin to poetry and art themselves." -Henry Sussman,State University of New York at Buffalo
