This is the 1973 Prentice-Hall Third Edition, titled Philosophical Investigations: The English Text of the Third Edition. The third edition was an important revision of Wittgenstein\'s classic work and is one of the standard English-language editions of the text.
Wittgenstein\'s Philosophical Investigations is one of the central works of twentieth-century philosophy, particularly influential in the philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, logic, epistemology, and ordinary-language philosophy. The book examines meaning, language games, rules, understanding, private experience, and the ways philosophical problems arise from the misuse or misunderstanding of language.
This edition features the English translation by G. E. M. Anscombe, one of Wittgenstein\'s most important translators and interpreters.
