So far as I can tell, only the first 120 pages of Botticis book are relevant here. But perhaps that is a point in her favour. Loking at the price of the books however, Work on Myth remains cheaper. And If I were to cast my vote for the best book to read, it would be for Blumenberg. He is a wonderful thinker in his own right (and his extraordinary essay, "Paradigms for a Metaphorology" will finally appear in English translation in June, I believe.)
