Valuable to students of Heidegger in particular and more generally to anyone interested in 20th-century German and French thought, this book compares favorably to Emmanuel Faye's Heidegger.

Entries in this work are dense, opaque, and often unapproachable. Although the material may be of interest to those with a love of linguistics or translation, the long, confusing entries do little to aid one's understanding of a term. The entries are so impenetrable that it would be difficult for all but the most intense scholar to read through them.
