Wittgenstein: Conversations, 1949-1951

by O. K. Bouwsma, J. L. Craft (Editor), R. E. Hustwit (Editor)

Overview

"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
