Being and Nothingness

Being and Nothingness by Sartre, Jean Paul. mass_market edition. ISBN: 9780671483883.

Being and Nothingness may well be thought of as Sartres greatest work; it has also come to be regarded as a text-book of existentialism itself, and this is for many reasons a proper way to read it. These pages set out with relative perspicuity almost all of the salient ideas of existentialism; and, in addition, the method according to which the book is composed is itself highly characteristic of existentialist philosophers."
