Description
"Remarkable how well Bouwsma understood Wittgenstein's approach to philosophical problems and how intelligently he was able to recount Wittgenstein's discussions. The bits about sensation are especially good. And the asides about the other philosophers--e.g. Dewey, Russell, Anscombe--are, while not frivolous, gossipy and titillating." --Riley Wallihan, Western Oregon University
Reviews
"Gives an extraordinarily intimate insight into what Wittgenstein was like as a human being... These notes... capture Wittgenstein's outlook on morality and religion, and reveal some of his personal problems..." -- Alice Ambrose Lazerowitz, Smith College.
