Things like this:
@inbook{Heidegger1954,
crossref = {Heidegger1993book},
Title = {The question concerning technology},
OriginalYear = {1954},
Pages = {311--341} }
@inbook{Heidegger1972,
crossref = {Heidegger1993book},
Title = {Being and Time},
OriginalYear = {1972},
Pages = {41--87} }
@book{Heidegger1993book,
Author = {Martin Heidegger},
Title = {Basic Writings},
BookTitle = {Basic Writings},
Editor = {David Farrell Krell},
Year = {1993},
Publisher = {Harper Collins},
Address = {San Francisco} }
Cheers
