The advent of machine technology has given rise to some of the deepest problems
of modern thought. Featuring the celebrated essay "The Question Concerning
Technology," this prescient volume contains Martin Heidegger's groundbreaking
investigation into the pervasive "enframing" character of our understanding of
ourselves and the world. As relevant now as ever before, this collection is an
essential landmark in the philosophy of science from "one of the most profound
thinkers of the twentieth century" (New York Times).
