An older but still valuable introduction to existentialism is

Irrational Man: A Study in Existential

by William Barrett (New York: Anchor Books, 1962, 2nd edn. 1990). Two helpful collections of writings by leading existentialist authors are

Existentialism: Basic Writings , ed. Charles Guignon and Derk Pereboom (Indianapolis, IN: Hackett, 1995) and

The Existentialist Reader: An Anthology of Key Texts , ed. Paul S. MacDonald (New York: Routledge, 2001). Someone wishing to pursue essays on the basic concepts of existential and phenomenological thought by a variety of authors, as well as existential and phenomenological contributions to a number of topics in current philosophical discussion should consult Hubert L. Dreyfus and Mark A. Wrathall (eds.),

A Companion to Existentialism and Phenomenology (Oxford: Blackwell, 2006).

Chapter-length essays on existentialism, phenomenology, and most of the individual philosophers discussed here, along with helpful suggestions for further reading, are available in the

Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy , online at
