解構主義大師德希達代表作一九六〇年代開始的那場對結構主義理性的批評，究竟是對理性的否定還是逼其面對自身盲點？德希達與解構主義對二十世紀西方思想史的撞擊，強烈影響至今。解構思想所引發的爭議、批評、激情、奇想，至今依舊在各人文社科領域延伸其足跡。當今世界的歷史變化，愈來愈展示出解構批評所關注的跡象，即那些傳統理性所無法把握的；從另一角度而言，解構思想的生命歷程，恰恰與二十世紀後半葉以來的人類歷史有著同構性的徵兆。書中揭業「書寫」的不透明、中介特性，以及文字傳達意義的延宕、挪移及後設性。而「差異」（différence，或延異、衍異、分延）的觀念，更直指意義表現，實踐的無限播散與分裂可能。本書為西方二十世紀末、二十一世紀的思維、論述模式帶來決定性的影響或斷裂。解構、後現代主義的典範因此而興。本書集結德希達一九六三至一九六七年發表於法國重要知識刊物《批評》（Critique）、《弓》（LArc）、《泰爾凱》（Tel Quel）等十一篇重要論文。藉由對現代哲學與法國文學的深刻探討――包含思想巨擘尼采、黑格爾、胡塞爾與佛洛伊德，以及當時漸受注目的思想界新秀李維史陀、傅柯、勒維納斯等，以及法國哲學大家巴塔耶（Georges Bataille）、戲劇家亞陶（Antonin Artaud）、詩人雅畢斯（Edmond Jabes）與思想家布朗簫（Maurice Blanchot）等人的作品。在這部標誌性的重量級著作，德希達一步步解構西方形上學，展現法國當代思潮的活力，新寫下有關主體與他者、語言與表象、存在與歷史等哲學思考的另一篇章。解構思想與前述哲思，在此碰撞激發出強烈的火花，挑戰並啟發了無數人對於思考、閱讀與書寫的新方式。
