Wittgenstein on Mind and Language (Hardcover)

Wittgenstein on Mind and Language argues that Wittgenstein's views are often much simpler (and more radical) than we have been led to believe. Drawing on ten years of research on the unpublished Wittgenstein papers, Stern investigates what motivated Wittgenstein's philosophical writing and casts new light on the Tractatus and Philosophical Investigations. The book provides an overview of the development of Wittgenstein's philosophy and brings to light aspects of his thought that have been almost universally neglected.
