The Vattimo Dictionary consists of 101 entries arranged in alphabetical order and written by 53 contributors from around the world

They include specific philosophical concepts and philosophers who have influenced his thinking, as well as terms of biographical interest. Key criticisms of Vattimo's work are included by prominent authors in the field, from Eduardo Mendieta, Franca D'Agostini, Santiago Zabala, Silvia Mazzini, Carmelo Dotolo, Federico Vercellone to Robert Valgenti.
