Also crucial for understanding the ontological themes in deconstruction. One of Derrida's most sustained considerations of Heidegger, whose work shows up in subtle and ambiguous ways in all of Derrida's texts.Also crucial for understanding the complexities of post-modernisms ambivalence towards humanism. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/1307592?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
