Shopping is a raging phenomenon among developed countries and has
been studied over and over. Sociologists say it's a 'female drive',
in an attempt to explain the differences in shopping behavior
between men and women. It was said that the same obsession of men
over sports can be linked to the way women go crazy on Black Friday
sales or on mall openings. In the evolution of man, the male
species are known to be 'hunters', while women have always been the
'gatherers' or the ones who are in charge of finding things for
their offspring. It is quite a reductionist perspective and is
still widely debated, but one thing's for sure, shopping will keep
women enchanted for years to come. This behaviour is not exactly
exclusive to women though, because when you consider the purchase
of gadgets, large screen TV's, and high-end cars, the tendency of
men to make expensive purchases is surely noticeable.

The History of Beyng belongs to a series of Martin Heidegger's
reflections from the 1930s that concern how to think about being
not merely as a series of occurrences, but as essentially
historical or fundamentally as an event. Beginning with
Contributions to Philosophy (Of the Event), these texts are
important for their meditations on the oblivion and abandonment of
being, politics, and race, and for their incisive critique of
power, force, and violence. Originally published in 1998 as volume
69 of Heidegger's Complete Works, this English translation opens
new avenues for understanding the trajectory of Heidegger's
thinking during this crucial time.

The essays collected in this volume take a new look at the role of
language in the thought of Martin Heidegger to reassess its
significance for contemporary philosophy. They consider such topics
as Heidegger's engagement with the Greeks, expression in language,
poetry, the language of art and politics, and the question of
truth. Heidegger left his unique stamp on language, giving it its
own force and shape, especially with reference to concepts such as
Dasein, understanding, and attunement, which have a distinctive
place in his philosophy. -- Indiana University Press
