The focus of Fernand Braudel's great work is the Mediterranean world in the second half of the sixteenth century, but Braudel ranges back in history to the world of Odysseus and forward to our time, moving out from the Mediterranean area to the New World and other destinations of Mediterranean traders. Braudel's scope embraces the natural world and material life, economics, demography, politics, and diplomacy.

"If one laughs when David Hackett Fischer sits down to play, one will stay to cheer.  His book must be read three times: the first in anger, the srcond in laughter, the third in respect....The wisdom is expressed with a certin ruthlessness.  Scarcly a major historian escapes unscathed.  Ten thousand members of the AmericanHistorical Association will rush to the index and breathe a little easier to find their names absent.

<p>"To read Heidegger is to set out on an adventure. The essays in this volume ~ intriguing, challenging, and often baffling to the reader ~ call him always to abandon all superficial scanning and to enter wholeheartedly into the serious pursuit of thinking... Heidegger is not a 'primitive' or a 'romanitic.' He is not one who seeks escape from the burdens and responsibilities of contemporary life into serenity, either through the re~creating of some idyllic past or through the exalting of some simple experience. Finally, Heidegger is not a foe of technology and science. He neither disdains nor rejects them as though they were only destructive of human life."</p>
